Detailed Specifications
HPE P41854-001 ProLiant DL380a Gen11 2U Rack Server
Overview
The HPE ProLiant DL380a Gen11, identified by part number P41854-001, is a dual-socket 2U server engineered for the growing demands of enterprise artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. Its accelerator-optimized design provides a dense, scalable architecture for data centers running GPU-intensive workloads. This server addresses the critical need for maximum compute and graphics capability in a standard rack-mount form factor, delivering a potent solution for machine learning, deep learning, and advanced engineering applications. At its core, the system is built to harness the power of 4th and 5th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, providing the computational foundation for demanding tasks. The server's key innovation is its capacity to support up to four double-wide or eight single-wide GPUs, enabling massive parallel processing. This is complemented by a high-speed PCIe 5.0 bus, which ensures data flows rapidly between the CPUs, memory, and accelerators, significantly reducing I/O bottlenecks that can hinder complex data analysis and model training. Designed for seamless integration into existing IT infrastructure, the DL380a Gen11's 2U chassis fits standard server racks. Management is streamlined through the embedded HPE Integrated Lights-Out 6 (iLO 6) controller, which offers secure, comprehensive remote server management from initial deployment to ongoing maintenance. This allows administrators to monitor system health, manage power, and update firmware from anywhere, ensuring operational efficiency and system uptime.
