8 x 2.5''NVMe backplane
Use this section to understand the cable routing of 8 NVMe front drives.
To connect power cables for a backplane for standard 2.5'' or 3.5'' drives, refer to Backplane power cable routing.
To connect signal cables, refer to the following cable routing scenario:
Cable routing with an SFF RAID adapter
The following tables show the mapping relationship between backplane connectors and an SFF HBA/RAID adapter (Gen4).
Figure 1. Cable routing for 8 x 2.5'' NVMe drive backplane with a 32i SFF RAID adapter (Gen4)


Backplane | From | To |
---|---|---|
Front BP(NVMe) | 1 NVMe 0–1 | 1 C0 |
2 NVMe 2–3 | 2 C1 | |
3 NVMe 4–5 | 3 C2 | |
4 NVMe 6–7 | 4 C3 |
