Overall Structure Description of Power Supply Adapter Cable
Core Components: Comprises one ATX 4-pin to SATA power adapter cable. This cable features two critical connectors: an ‘ATX 12V 4-pin male connector' and a ‘SATA power female connector'. Both are connected via 18AWG copper core wiring, with the cable exterior covered by a braided protective sleeve.
Connector Specifications: The ATX 4-pin male connector employs standard dimensions (not mini 4-pin), with gold-plated pins enhancing conductivity and oxidation resistance. This ensures precise alignment with Lenovo-specified motherboard 4-pin power interfaces. The SATA female power connector complies with universal SATA device power interface standards. Its internal spring contacts maintain excellent elasticity, providing a secure grip on SATA device power male connectors to prevent loosening.
Overall Specifications: Single adapter cable length (including connectors) is 12 inches (33cm). Each cable weighs approximately 20g. Packaging utilises transparent PE bags for easy product visibility while providing dust protection.

Important Notes:
1. Strict compatibility restrictions apply: exclusively compatible with Lenovo Q77, Q75, E450, E350, and D510 series motherboards, specifically for standard 4-pin power connectors (not mini 4-pin). Verify your motherboard model and connector specifications before purchase to prevent incompatibility issues.
2. Device compatibility verification: The SATA end supports only standard SATA device power connectors. Before connection, ensure hard drives, SSDs, or water cooling units utilise SATA-spec power interfaces. Non-standard interfaces (e.g., Mini SATA) are incompatible.
3. Installation guidelines: Insert/remove connectors vertically to prevent angled pulling which may bend or damage pins. During assembly, organise cables to prevent compression by internal fans or metal components, thus avoiding cable damage or short circuits.
4. Quantity and Usage Planning: Each pack contains three adapter cables. Use them appropriately based on your number of SATA devices. If connecting multiple devices, plan power routes in advance to prevent overload from connecting too many simultaneously.
5. Storage and Maintenance: When not in use, store adapter cables in a dry environment free from corrosive gases to prevent moisture penetration or chemical damage to the braided sheath. Should connector oxidation or cable damage be detected during regular use, cease operation immediately to prevent power supply failures that could damage equipment.
