Cisco Barebone System – 2U Rack-mountable – 2 x Processor Support

The UCS C240 M6 LFF server extends the capabilities of Cisco’s Unified Computing System portfolio in a 2U form factor with the addition of the 3rd Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors (Ice Lake), 16 DIMM slots per CPU for 3200-MHz DDR4 DIMMs with per DIMM capacity points up to 256 GB. Up to 8 TB total memory (for 2 CPUs) is available if the memory slots are populated with 32 x 256 GB DDR4 DIMMs1 or 16 x 256 GB DDR4 DIMMs and 16 x 256 GB Intel® Optane™ Persistent Memory Modules (PMem).

The server accommodates up to 12 front facing SAS-only LFF drives, up to 4 mid-plane SAS-only LFF drives, and up to 4 rear-facing SFF drives (SAS or SATA or NVMe).

The server is equipped with two rear storage risers (2 drive slots each) and one rear PCIe riser (3 PCIe slots). The server also provides a riser slot for a 12G SAS RAID controller with SuperCap for write cache backup, or for a SAS HBA. The chassis is equipped with six fans and two power supplies.

The C240 M6 LFF server includes a dedicated modular LAN on motherboard (mLOM) slot for installation of a Cisco Virtual Interface Card (VIC) or third-party network interface card (NIC) without consuming a PCI slot, in addition to 2 x 10 Intel x550 10Gbase-T embedded (on the motherboard) LOM ports.

The Cisco UCS C240 M6 server can be used standalone, or as part of the Cisco Unified Computing System, which unifies computing, networking, management, virtualization, and storage access into a single integrated architecture enabling end-to-end server visibility, management, and control in both bare metal and virtualized environments.

• Compatible Xeon Bronze processor lets you perform all your computational tasks at a swift pace
• DDR4 SDRAM compatible slot – Allows the memory to operate at an effective bus speed while using minimal power, resulting in an optimal computer performance and improved memory heat dissipation
• Gigabit Ethernet enables higher aggregate data transfer capacity which results in a better overall performance
• Provides 2 USB ports for responsive and expanded device connections
• 12Gb/s SAS interface for high speed and reliability
