T7400 Workstation: Ram Risers & CR388 Power Cable
I have a T7400 and I just received the 2 optional ram risers and the required CR388 power cable in the picture.
I know that the 2 power cables plug into the risers but where does the larger white plug labeled P24 plug into?

Where did you find the cable? Or was it a package? I recently bought the risers on Amazon, but they have no cables. I contacted Dell thru my work, we are a Dell shop, and they say the cable is discontinued. I've been looking for the cable but I can't find it except for on ebay and shipping is nuts. Also, Since two cards are needed, facing back to back. The cable only works for one card, how do I power the second card, or if I connect power to Riser 2 does it power Riser 1 and then Riser 4 powers Riser 3?

I looked forever for a cheaper option for the CR388 power cable. Kept checking eBay and eventually found both risers with the power cable for like $40.
As far as powering the 2nd card, I was wondering the same thing. But eventually realized the power supply has the same 2 little power cables for the other riser card.
