This is on a Gigabyte Z282-Z91 rack server.
These are the power connectors for the GPU but I have never seen these before and can't find them anywhere.
Anybody know what this power connector is called and where I can get a cable for it?

Look the same type that you get on PSU's for modern PCIe GPU's. They tend to just be labelled as an 8-pin 12V GPU connector (there are also 6-pin versions).

Good picture from there:
But check those rounded corners, the top left on there is square, is the bottom right on yours is rounded, they're not exactly the same but probably named similar. Makes me think there's a specific rack PSU for that with the proper corners for it...?

Probably can't tell by the pic, but they are about 30% smaller than a standard pcie power cable.

Probably get more joy from Gigabyte support.

Looks to be the R282-Z91
https://www.gigabyte.com/Rack-Server/R282-Z91-rev-100
The manual just lists them as "4 2 x 4 Pin P12V GPU Power Connector", and no optional part numbers listed anywhere on Gigabyte's site, so as above I'd be contacting Gigabyte, unless @GIGA-Man can help

Already asked Gigabyte support. They said to contact supplier (which i did, they had no idea, they kept trying to sell me standard pcie cables). Then they said this case does not have support for GPU's. They won't even tell me what the cable is called.
I need the power for a raid card that requires pcie 6 pin power suppliment. ARC-18833ix-24 only needs about 25 watts.
If all else fails im gonna buy a sata pcie add in card with a builtin power circuit and get a sata power to pcie 6pin connector.

I cannot help with server product, really sorry I only have access to retail based parts.

The R282-Z91 appears to use the same motherboard as the R282-Z93, which is the MZ92-FS0.
Looking at the user guide for the R282-Z93, this seems to be the only server using this motherboard to support GPUs.
https://download.gigabyte.com/FileList/Manual/server_manual_r282-z93_e_10.pdf
Page 46 of the user guide shows cable routing for GPU’s using the power slots indicated. This appears to be via a card riser, the CRS2014 or the CRS2026.
I'm hitting a blank trying to find the risers, but it might be something to go back to support with, trying to identify the cable.
Also, looking closely at the PSU back-plane on the R162-Z10/Z11, it appears to have a similar pair of connectors, however they aren’t documented in the user guide.
