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

SKU: UCSC-C245-M8SX

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 5thGen and 4thGen 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 5thGen or up to two 4thGen 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
  • Up to 8 x PCIe Gen 4.0 slots or up to 4 x PCIe Gen 5.0 slots, plus a hybrid modular LAN on motherboard (mLOM) /OCP 3.0 slot (details below)
  • Support for Cisco UCS VIC 15000 Series adapters as well as a host of third-party NIC options
  • Up to 28 hot-swappable small-form-factor (SFF) SAS/SATA or NVMe drives (with up to 8 direct-attach NVMe drives)
  • New tri-mode RAID controller supports SAS4 plus NVMe hardware RAID
  • M.2 boot options
  • Up to two 960GB SATA M.2 drives with hardware RAID support
  • Up to two 960GB NVMe M.2 drives with NVMe hardware RAID
  • Support for up to Eight GPUs
  • Modular LOM / OCP 3.0
  • One dedicated PCIe Gen4x16 slot that can be used to add an mLOM or OCP 3.0 card for additional rear-panel connectivity
  • Perform computational tasks effectively accrediting the EPYC processor
  • The DDR5 SDRAM memory technology efficiently move data across electric components and provide smooth PC performance
  • Gigabit Ethernet enables higher aggregate data transfer capacity which results in a better overall performance
  • Can connect up to 2 USB peripherals
  • 24Gb/s SAS interface provides quick data transfer and greater throughput
