HPE 448180-001 ML110 G5 Sata Cable 450MM

A drive cable in a tower server has a simple job, but its routing, connector orientation and length still need to suit the chassis. HPE 448180-001 is the internal SATA data cable documented for the ProLiant ML110 G5, with a length of approximately 450 mm (18 inches). It is used in the server’s non-hot-plug SATA drive arrangement, carrying the Serial ATA data connection between the relevant system connection and drive. For an ML110 G5 being repaired or returned to its original drive configuration, 448180-001 is the HPE reference that identifies the required SATA cable rather than a generic lead chosen only by connector type.

Built Around the Internal Layout of a ProLiant Server

Internal server cables have to reach their connection points without creating unnecessary excess inside the chassis. The 450 mm length of 448180-001 is suited to the routing used by the supported ProLiant hardware. Parts references also describe a straight-to-upright/angled SATA connector arrangement, which helps the cable fit the physical drive and system layout.

HPE’s ProLiant ML110 G5 documentation explicitly lists 448180-001 as the SATA cable. The same documentation treats drive power separately, which is worth noting because this part is a SATA data cable, not a combined data-and-power assembly.

Verified Specification Summary

When This Cable Becomes Relevant

An ML110 G5 may need 448180-001 after a drive-area repair, a chassis rebuild or a hardware move where the original SATA lead has been lost or damaged. It can also be useful when restoring a server that was previously configured differently and now needs its non-hot-plug SATA drive connection reinstated.

The same part number appears in parts references for other selected ProLiant systems, including the DL160 G5 and DL180 G6. Because server revisions can have different storage layouts, the existing cable label and system documentation remain useful references for identifying the intended spare. The advantage of the HPE number is that it narrows the requirement beyond the broad description “SATA cable”.

Not All Internal SATA Cables Do the Same Job

The HPE 484355-001 optical-drive SATA data and power cable is a good example. Although it also belongs inside a ProLiant server and includes SATA connectivity, it is intended for an optical drive and uses a different cable assembly. The related HPE 484355-004 optical-drive power cable deals specifically with power for that application.

Storage and tape hardware introduce still more cable types. The HPE 406596-001 StorageWorks internal SAS cable uses SAS/SATA device connectors in a tape enclosure, while the HPE 407339-B21 External Mini-SAS 2m Cable is designed for external storage connections. For high-speed networking rather than drives, the HPE 487655-B21 3m 10GbE SFP+ copper cable connects compatible 10GbE ports. Looking at the function first makes it much easier to distinguish these HPE spares.

Why the 450mm Length Matters Inside the Chassis

A 450mm server cable is long enough to reach the intended SATA connection points while remaining manageable within the ML110 G5 chassis. Excessively long generic cabling can leave additional loops around drive bays and other internal components. Using the HPE cable specified for the server keeps the installation closer to the original layout and makes the part particularly suitable for refurbishment work where the aim is to restore the machine rather than redesign its internal cabling.

New and Refurbished Stock for Server Maintenance

A New 448180-001 cable can be useful for a planned ML110 G5 restoration or as unused maintenance stock. Refurbished stock offers another sensible route for supporting older ProLiant systems that continue to handle useful workloads. In both cases, the objective is the same: restore the server’s internal SATA data path with the correct type of cable while retaining the existing hardware investment.

HPE 448180-001 FAQs

What type of cable is HPE 448180-001?

It is an internal Serial ATA data cable used for non-hot-plug SATA drive connectivity in supported HPE ProLiant servers.

How long is HPE 448180-001?

The cable is approximately 450 mm, or 18 inches, long.

Is 448180-001 documented for the ProLiant ML110 G5?

Yes. ProLiant ML110 G5 documentation identifies 448180-001 as the SATA cable.

Does HPE 448180-001 carry drive power?

It is identified as a SATA data cable. Drive power is handled separately in the supported server configuration.

Which other ProLiant systems are associated with this cable?

The part is also listed by enterprise parts suppliers for systems including ProLiant DL160 G5 and DL180 G6, among selected later models.

Can 448180-001 replace the SATA cable in an ML110 G5?

Where the server documentation or existing cable identifies part number 448180-001, the same HPE part number is the appropriate reference for sourcing the replacement.
