NOTE:
- All processors in the compute module must be identical.
- HT indicates that the processor model supports Intel Hyper-Threading Technology.
- Turbo indicates the maximum potential frequency when using Intel Turbo Boost Technology. The increment of the frequency boost depends on the processor SKU and the number of active cores. In general, a larger boost increment is achieved when fewer cores are active.
- DDR4 speed is the maximum speed of the processor’s memory. Actual memory speed may depend on the number and type of DIMMs installed.
- Supports 1 or 2 processors. Mixing different processor models is not supported.
- For the Intel C610 E5-2600 v4 Series Chipset, the letter preceding the model number indicates the product line (E3, E5, E7); 2600x, 2 = number of CPUs on a module, 6 is the socket/segment designation, 00 = processor SKU ex = L for low-power SKUs.
- The HP Synergy 480 Gen9 Compute Module includes three mezzanine I/O connectors. One processor must be installed in processor slot 1 for access to mezzanine connectors one and three (mezzanine connectors 1 and 3). One processor must be installed in processor slot 2 for access to mezzanine connector two (mezzanine connector 2).
- For 22-core processors.
- For 20-core processors.
- For 18-core processors.
- For 16-core processors.
- For 14-core processors.
- For 12-core processors.
- For 8-core or 10-core processors.
- For 6-, 8-, or 10-core processors.
- For 4 or 6 core processors.
- For Quad-core processors.
- LRDIMM and RDIMM are distinct memory technologies and cannot be combined into one compute module.
- Previous generation HP server memory (DDR3) is not compatible with this compute module. HP SmartMemory is required to realize the memory performance improvements and enhanced functionality listed in this document for Gen9.
- Supports full hardware offload of FCoE storage protocol processing for high-performance converged Ethernet data and storage networks.
- Provides flexibility to compose multiple network streams, including Ethernet and FCoE or iSCSI on each connection.
- This mezzanine connector supports dual-port mezzanine cards: one port is routed to interconnect module bay 1 and the other to bay 4.
- This mezzanine connector supports dual-port mezzanine boards: one port is routed to interconnect module 2 bay and the other to bay 5. A second processor must be installed (in processor slot 2) to gain access to the mezzanine 2 connector.
