The
Cisco UCS C240 M5 8 Bay SFF 2U Rackmount Server meets the high-performance demands of today’s data-intensive workloads. As part of Cisco’s Unified Computing System (UCS) portfolio, this server delivers unparalleled flexibility and power. It features 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable Processors, up to 9 TB of memory, and cutting-edge Intel Optane Persistent Memory Modules (PMEMs). So, it can handle demanding applications like virtualization, big data, and high-performance computing.
The 2U form factor supports up to 8 small form factor (SFF) drives, balancing performance and storage density. The C240 M5 includes six PCIe 3.0 slots for future expandability. Dual 10GBase-T ports and a dedicated modular LAN on motherboard (mLOM) slot ensure high-speed connectivity without using PCIe slots. Whether used as a standalone server or in a Cisco UCS environment, the C240 M5 offers consistent, reliable performance, reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) and enhancing business agility.
