3U 32-slot Expansion Enclosure, PCIe 3.0
For OEM customers only.
Please call the factory for price and availability.
Please see Appliances for this product preconfigured.
The 3U expansion enclosure supports up to 32 PCIe x8 Gen3 cards in 4 hot-swappable cannisters, each containing up to 8 cards each. One to four servers can be conected to the enclosure each through a PCIe x16 cable.
The 3U 32-slot enclosure offers the highest density in a rackmount enclosure. It's also a self-contained unit with its own power and cooling and connected to one to four servers over PCIe x16 cables. PCIe expansion offers the fastest throughput of any expansion technology because it connects directly to the servers' motherbords without requiring extensive overhead impacting latency. One of the most notable applications for this enclsoure is the Flash Storage Array (FSA) containing 32 3.2TB Flash storage boards. This exceptional appliance provides data centers with the fastest, high volume storage on the market today. Websites display more quickly, imaging applications like seismic exploration, and VDI in industrial applications all operate seemlessly and quicker with the Flash Storage Array.
Each cannister is hot-swapppable so the machine continues to operate when one is extracted. Each slot supports boards requiring up to 75W of power. Two 1200-watt hot-swappable power supplies provide 2400W of redundant power.
The following chart shows the variety of ways servers can be connected to the 3U enclsoure. '1' represents a cable present and '0' represents a cable not present.
