The Dell EMC PowerEdge R7515 (2U rack system) is a 1-socket, 2U server that is designed to run complex workloads using highly scalable memory, I/O ports, and network channels. The system is based on the 2nd and 3rd Generation AMD EPYC processors, which support several SKUs ranging from 16 cores and up to 64 cores, up to 16 DIMMs, PCI Express-4.0 enabled expansion slots, and a choice of LOM riser technologies.
Data center evolution starts with modern platforms that scale easily and are optimized for application performance. The Dell EMC PowerEdge R7515 is built upon a scalable system architecture and provides choice and flexibility to meet performance demands. High-level specifications:
The Dell EMC OpenManage systems management portfolio delivers an efficient and comprehensive solution for PowerEdge servers through tailored, automated, and repeatable processes.
Every PowerEdge server is designed with a cyber resilient architecture, integrating security deeply into every phase in the lifecycle, from design to retirement.
The PowerEdge R7515 system supports up to 16 DIMMS, 2 TB of memory, and speeds up to 3200 MT/s
