Overview
The HPE P55535-001 is the configure-to-order (CTO) chassis for the ProLiant DL380 Gen11 server, a 2U rack-optimized platform designed for exceptional versatility and performance. It serves as the foundation for a dual-socket server built to handle demanding workloads in hybrid cloud environments, data analytics, and VDI. This chassis is engineered to solve scalability and management challenges by providing a dense, secure, and operationally efficient building block for modern data centers. At its core, the Gen11 architecture introduces support for 4th and 5th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors and high-speed DDR5 memory, delivering a significant leap in compute density and power efficiency. The chassis itself is designed for superior thermal management, accommodating high-wattage processors and advanced accelerators. This ensures sustained performance under heavy computational loads, translating to faster insights from data and more responsive application delivery for end-users. Intended for rack-scale deployment, the 2U form factor provides an optimal balance of density and serviceability. Management is streamlined through the integrated HPE Integrated Lights-Out 6 (iLO 6), which offers remote server setup, health monitoring, and power and thermal control. The P55535-001 chassis, with its embedded Silicon Root of Trust, provides a secure foundation for building out a highly reliable and manageable IT infrastructure.
