Cisco UCS B480 M5 Blade Server Features:
- Through Cisco UCS, gives you the architectural advantage of not having to power, cool, manage, and purchase excess switches (management, storage, and networking), Host Bus Adapters (HBAs), and Network Interface Cards (NICS) in each blade chassis
- Reduces the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) by removing management modules from the chassis, making the chassis stateless
- Provides a single, highly available Cisco Unified Computing System™ (Cisco UCS) management domain for all system chassis and rack servers, reducing administrative tasks
- Four new second-generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable CPUs (up to 28 cores per socket)
- Four existing Intel® Xeon® Scalable CPUs (up to 28 cores per socket)
- Support for higher density DDR4 memory, from 6 TB (128G DDR4 DIMMs) to 12 TB (256G DDR4 DIMMs)
- Memory speeds increase from 2666 MHz to 2933 MHz
- Intel Optane DC Persistent Memory Modules (DCPMM) – 128G, 256G, and 512G[1]
