UCS C245M8 RACK W/OCPU MEM DRV 2UW24SFF HDD/SSD BACKPLANE

The Cisco UCS C245 M8 Rack Server is perfectly suited for a wide range of storage and I/O-intensive applications such as big data analytics, databases, collaboration, virtualization, consolidation, AI/ML and high-performance computing supporting up to two AMD CPUs in a 2RU form factor.

The Cisco UCS C245 M8 Rack Server extends the capabilities of the Cisco UCS rack server portfolio. It powers 5^thGen and 4^thGen AMD EPYC^™Processors with up to 160 cores per socket designed using AMD's chiplet architecture. With advanced features like AMD Infinity Guard, compute-intensive applications will see significant performance improvements and will reap other benefits such as power and cost efficiencies.

You can deploy the Cisco UCS C-Series rack servers as part of the Cisco Unified Computing System^™managed by Cisco Intersight^®or Cisco UCS Manager to take advantage of Cisco^®standards-based unified computing innovations that can help reduce your Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) and increase your business agility or as standalone servers.

The Cisco UCS C245 M8 Rack Server brings many innovations to the UCS AMD rack server line. With the introduction of PCIe Gen 5.0 expansion slots for high-speed I/O, a DDR5 memory bus, and expanded storage capabilities, the server delivers significant performance and efficiency gains that will greatly enhance application performance. Features include:

• Support for up to two 5^thGen or up to two 4^thGen AMD EPYC^™CPUs in a server designed to drive as much as 320 CPU cores (160 cores per socket)
• Up to 24 DDR5 DIMM slots, yielding up to 6 TB of capacity, using 256 GB DIMMs (12 DIMMs per socket)
• Up to 6000 MT/s DDR5 memory plus other speeds depending on the CPU installed
