Dell WFN6R HBA to 0J2CD2 Backplane Cable

Hi!

I've got an Dell WFN6R HBA installed in riser 3 of my r720, and am looking for a cable/part number that will connect the HBA to an OJ2CD2 backplane installed in the left front of the server chassis.

I would also like to inquire about a cable/part number that would reach from the mini PERC 710P to the OJ2CD2 backplane installed in the left front of the server chassis.

Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Best regards,

Warren Page

Hello Warren,

 

I'll start with what I could find. This is the cable from mini-PERC to backplane:  Y1MGK - ASSY,CBL,PERC,RT-BAY,2.5,R720

 

The R720 does not support and internal PERC and HBA  connected to backplane.

 

Pn# OJ2CD2 backplane does not come up as a valid backplane part number .

 

PN# WFN6R - HBA  is not validated for the R720. It's for these systems:

PRECISION T5810 AVALON 3 XL BTX

Hello Warren,

 

Sorry a correction. Y1MGK is for a PERC card not the mini.

 

Please see these part numbers: Several listed because I could not get the backplane part number that was posted to come up as valid.

I assume you have backplane with part number J2C2D not J2CD2. If this is correct you have two X8 backplane and connection is as per Figure 7 of below link

https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-in/poweredge-r720/720720xdom/removing-the-hard-drive-backplane?guid=guid-460ea053-a7d7-4d92-aed5-faed86f44d0e&lang=en-us

For this configuration to connect Left backplane to the motherboard you need to have below cable

MJCP4 - ASSY,CBL,MB,CNT-BAY,2.5X8,R720

 
Dell WFN6R HBA is not supported on R720. H710P (part # JJ8XD) is the supported controller for connecting right backplane on R720. You can use below cable to connect right backplane  to H710P adapter card
Y1MGK -  ASSY,CBL,PERC,RT-BAY,2.5,R720
