Cisco

®

 UCS C-Series Rack Servers extend unified computing innovations to an industry-standard form factor to help 

reduce total cost of ownership (TCO) and increase business agility. Designed to operate both in standalone 

environments and an entry point to the Cisco Unified Computing System

™

, the series employs Cisco technology to 

help customers handle the most challenging workloads. The series incorporates a standards-based unified network 

fabric, Cisco VN-Link virtualization support, and Cisco Extended Memory Technology. It supports an incremental 

deployment model and protects customer investments with a future migration path to unified computing. 

The Cisco UCS C460 M2 High-Performance Rack Server (Figure 1) is designed with the performance and reliability 

to power computation-intensive, enterprise-critical standalone applications and virtualized workloads. The system is a 

four-rack-unit (4RU) rack server supporting the Intel

®

 Xeon

®

 processor E7-4800 and E7-8800 product family, up to 2 

terabyte (TB) of double-data-rate 3 (DDR3) memory in 64 slots, and 12 Small Form Factor (SFF) hot-pluggable SAS, 

SATA or SSD drives. Abundant I/O capability is provided by 10 PCI Express (PCIe) slots supporting the Cisco UCS 

C-Series network adapters, with an eleventh PCIe slot reserved for a hard disk drive array controller card. Additional 

I/O is provided by two Gigabit Ethernet LAN-on-motherboard (LOM) ports, two 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, and two 

dedicated out-of-band (OOB) management ports. The following list summarizes the specifications: 

● 

Two or four multicore Intel

®

 Xeon

®

 processor E7-4800s and E7-8800s, for up to 40 processing cores 

● 

64 dual inline memory module (DIMM) slots for industry-standard DDR3 memory 

● 

Up to 12 front-accessible, hot-swappable, 2.5-inch SAS, SATA drives or SSDs 

● 

Ten PCIe slots: eight Generation 2 and two Generation 1, and four half-length and six three-quarter-length 

●
