  • Genuine Dell OEM part ensures exact fit
  • Connects volume board to motherboard for reliable control

  • New condition guarantees unused, factory-quality component
  • Alternate part numbers QAR00 and NBX00012A00 for easy identification

Genuine Dell OEM Ribbon Cable

This is a genuine Dell OEM ribbon cable that connects the volume button board on the palmrest to the motherboard. It is compatible with Dell Precision M4700 and M4800 laptops. The part replaces a damaged or faulty flex cable to restore volume control functionality. Buyers needing a different connector layout or length cannot use this part.

Replaces Worn or Broken Flex Cable

The cable replaces the original ribbon that may have torn, creased or lost continuity after repeated lid cycles or a palmrest swap. The jump is worth it when the volume keys stop responding or work intermittently while the board itself tests good. It is not for systems outside the M4700 and M4800 model lines.

Reliable Signal Path Under Daily Use

The flat ribbon maintains a stable connection through constant flexing as the display opens and closes. Conductors resist fatigue during sustained daily operation better than a cracked original. No active electronics are present, so thermal throttling or signal degradation under load does not occur.

Questions about this item

Does the ribbon cable reach from the palmrest-mounted volume board to the motherboard in a Precision M4700?

Yes, the genuine Dell OEM ribbon cable is designed to connect the volume board on the palmrest to the motherboard in both Precision M4700 and M4800 laptops.

What is the correct orientation when seating the cable into the motherboard connector during installation?

Align the exposed contacts on the ribbon with the motherboard header and press straight down until the connector latch clicks; reversing the cable will prevent the volume buttons from functioning.

How often should the volume button ribbon cable be replaced in a Precision M4800?

The cable is a passive component with no scheduled replacement interval; it only needs attention if the volume controls become intermittent or stop responding.
