Base Standard Capabilities
| Capability / Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Chassis | Two rack unit (2RU) chassis |
| CPU | One or two 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® scalable family CPUs |
| Chipset | Intel® C621 series chipset |
| Memory | 24 slots for registered DIMMs (RDIMMs), load-reduced DIMMs (LRDIMMs), or through silicon via (TSV) DIMMs and support for Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory (PMem) |
| Multi-bit Error Protection | This server supports multi-bit error protection. |
| Video | The Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) provides video using the Matrox G200e video/graphics controller:
|
| SATA Interposer Board | An optional SATA interposer board supports up to eight front facing SATA-only drives. |
| Power subsystem | Up to two of the following hot-swappable power supplies:
|
| Front Panel | A front panel controller provides status indications and control buttons. |
| ACPI | This server supports the advanced configuration and power interface (ACPI) 6.2 standard. |
| Fans | Six hot-swappable fans for front-to-rear cooling |
| Infiniband | The InfiniBand architecture is supported by the PCIe slots. |
| Expansion slots | Up to six PCIe slots (on two riser cards)
|
| Internal storage devices |
|
| - |
|
| - | One slot for a micro-SD card on PCIe Riser 1 (Option 1 and 1B). The micro-SD card serves as a dedicated local resource for utilities such as HUU. Images can be pulled from a file share (NFS/CIFS) and uploaded to the cards for future use |
| I/O Interfaces |
|
| Storage controller |
|
| Modular LAN on Motherboard (mLOM) slot | The dedicated mLOM slot on the motherboard can flexibly accommodate the following cards:
|
| Integrated management processor | Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) running Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) firmware. Depending on your CIMC settings, the CIMC can be accessed through the 1GE dedicated management port, the 1GE/10GE LOM ports, or a Cisco virtual interface card (VIC). CIMC manages certain components within the server, such as the Cisco 12G SAS HBA. |
| UCSM | UCS Manager (UCSM) runs in the Fabric Interconnect and automatically discovers and provisions some of the server components. |
