FAQs

Q: What server is this cable kit compatible with?
A: This cable kit is designed specifically for the HPE ProLiant Compute DL345 Gen12 SFF/EDSFF CTO Server (P81948-B21). It is not a universal cable and should only be used in the validated DL345 Gen12 platform.

Q: What drive types does this Tri-Mode PCIe cable kit support?
A: The kit supports SAS, SATA, and NVMe (U.3) drive types simultaneously through the Tri-Mode backplane, giving you flexibility to mix drive protocols within the same 16SFF backplane configuration.

Q: Which storage boxes does this kit connect?
A: This is the Box 2/3 cable kit, providing secondary Tri-Mode PCIe connectivity to the second and third storage cage positions in the DL345 Gen12 chassis. A separate kit is required for Box 1 or other primary configurations.

Q: Is this cable kit included with the DL345 Gen12 server?
A: No. This is an optional add-on accessory required for specific 16SFF secondary storage configurations. It must be ordered separately when building out or expanding storage in the DL345 Gen12 CTO server.

Q: Can I purchase this cable kit in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. iptrading.com.au stocks HPE ProLiant accessories including server cable kits like the P81883-B21. All products are authentic HPE hardware backed by reliable service and Australian-based support.

Q: Why do I need a Tri-Mode PCIe cable kit instead of a standard SAS cable?
A: Tri-Mode PCIe cabling supports SAS, SATA, and NVMe protocols over a single interface, allowing maximum storage flexibility in the DL345 Gen12. Standard SAS cables do not support NVMe (U.3) drives and would limit your storage options.
