• Form factor: Flexible flat cable (FFC)
• Connector 1: MCIO (Mini-Cool Edge IO) x8, straight orientation, male
• Connector 2: FFC (flexible flat cable) with fold configuration
• Protocol support: PCIe (implied by MCIO interface)
• Shielding: Yes, for high-speed signal integrity
• Colour: Black
• Compatibility: Supermicro systems

Why choose it

This cable is built to Supermicro's exacting standards, guaranteeing a precise fit and reliable performance in supported platforms. The straight MCIO connector simplifies installation in cramped areas, while the foldable FFC end allows for neat cable management and reduced airflow obstruction. Its shielded construction minimizes crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, preserving data integrity for PCIe-based storage or expansion connections.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting internal storage backplanes to motherboards in Supermicro servers
• Linking PCIe expansion cards or risers with MCIO interfaces
• Replacing damaged or missing internal data cables during system maintenance
• Custom builds using Supermicro chassis and boards that require MCIO-to-FFC connectivity

Good to know

The CBL-MCIO-1428M5FA2 is an original Supermicro accessory, ensuring compatibility with the specified connector types and signal requirements. Always verify that your system's board and device ports match the MCIO x8 and FFC interfaces before ordering. Proper routing and securing of the flat cable will help maintain optimal airflow and long-term reliability.
