IBM - 39R6589 - IBM 1m SAS Cable

IBM 39R6589 1m SAS Cable (Refurbished)

The IBM 39R6589 is a 1-metre Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) cable designed for internal SAS connectivity in IBM server and storage platforms. It is used to link SAS backplanes, drive cages, or SAS controllers/expanders, helping maintain clean signal integrity and tidy cable routing inside the chassis.

For IBM infrastructure builds and break/fix scenarios, this cable is typically sourced alongside related components such as NETWORK ADAPTER or a chassis-level NETWORK MODULE when standardising spares across an IBM estate. If you are building out rack connectivity around IBM systems, complementary switching options are available under SWITCH, and you can browse more refurbished IBM hardware in IBM.

Key Features

Below are the main technical characteristics and typical integration points for the IBM 39R6589 SAS cable in enterprise environments.

• 1 metre SAS cable length to support controlled internal routing between SAS endpoints in compact server/storage chassis.
• SAS interface cabling to connect SAS controllers/expanders to backplanes or drive cages for reliable disk connectivity.
• Compatible with IBM System x and IBM storage platforms that use internal SAS cabling, to support maintenance and lifecycle extension.
• Commonly used in IBM System x server families (for example System x3650 and System x3550 generations that rely on internal SAS backplane wiring) to restore or complete drive connectivity paths.
• Designed for backplane-to-controller or backplane-to-expander connections to help ensure consistent link behaviour across multi-drive bays.
• Enterprise-grade internal cable construction to support 24/7 operation in data centre and server room environments.
• Service-spare friendly part number (39R6589) to simplify identification, replacement, and standardised spares stocking.
• Suitable for repairs and upgrades where correct IBM FRU/part matching is required to minimise compatibility risk during field replacement.

Refurbished Quality and Warranty

This is refurbished hardware, cleaned and tested by technicians before entering stock to help reduce the risk of hardware defects. Refurbished spares are a practical way to keep existing IBM server and storage installations operational, extend platform lifecycle, and reduce electronic waste versus replacing complete systems.

All products from Direct Hardware Supply include a one-year warranty from the date of purchase (batteries, tape drives and tape libraries include a three-month warranty). Extended warranty options are available on request. Direct Hardware Supply is an international supplier of refurbished IT hardware, shipping worldwide from Denmark.
