DELL Latitude E6540 Precision M2800 Keyboard Ribbon Cable M6HP1 accessory

SKU CH-FXS2-B8A3Z

Genuine Dell OEM keyboard ribbon cable connecting the keyboard to the motherboard on Latitude E6540 and Precision M2800 laptops

  • Genuine Dell OEM part ensures exact fit
  • Connects keyboard assembly to motherboard reliably
  • Compatible with Latitude E6540 models
  • Compatible with Precision M2800 models
  • Dell part number M6HP1 for precise identification

Genuine Dell Keyboard Ribbon Cable

This genuine Dell OEM ribbon cable carries the M6HP1 part number and connects the keyboard assembly to the motherboard. It is a direct replacement for the original cable fitted to Latitude E6540 and Precision M2800 laptops. Buyers who need a different connector layout or a cable for another model will not be served by this part.

Thin Flexible Ribbon Design

The flat ribbon construction routes cleanly through the narrow channels of the laptop chassis and plugs straight into the board-level connector. No additional brackets, screws or adapters are required for installation. Technicians who prefer a shielded round cable or a longer harness will not find those features here.

Restores Factory Keyboard Connection

Swapping a damaged or corroded ribbon restores reliable key input without replacing the whole keyboard module. The part matches the original specification so the upgrade is complete once the cable is seated. Users whose keyboard fault lies in the controller or the key switches themselves will need a different repair.

Questions about this item

What connector type does the M6HP1 ribbon cable use to link the keyboard to the motherboard?

The M6HP1 is a flat ribbon cable with a ZIF connector that plugs directly into the keyboard and the motherboard header on the Latitude E6540 and Precision M2800.

What clearance is required inside the chassis to route this keyboard ribbon cable?

The cable follows the factory routing channel beneath the palm-rest assembly; no extra clearance beyond the standard laptop chassis is needed.

How is the M6HP1 ribbon cable installed, and which step is most often missed?

Lift the ZIF latch on both the keyboard and motherboard connectors, insert the cable with the contacts facing down, then lock both latches; the step most often missed is fully seating the cable before closing the latches.
