Cisco Cisco UCS B260 M4 Blade Server Hoja De Datos

Page 2 of 7

The new Cisco UCS B260 M4 Blade Server (Figure 2) is the new server building block in Cisco's innovative server

and Cisco UCS solutions. The increased performance of this new blade server

continues the evolution of Cisco’s

revolutionary Cisco UCS platform with its advances in fabric-centric computing, open APIs, application-centric

management, and hardware infrastructure abstraction.

Increased Performance and Architectural Advantage

The Cisco UCS B260 M4 combines the power of two Intel

Xeon

processor E7 v2, E7 v3, or E7 v4 product family

and accelerates access to critical data. This blade server supports up to 48 processor cores, 3.0 TB of memory,

3.2 TB of internal storage, and 160 Gbps of overall Ethernet throughput. In addition, the Cisco UCS B260 M4

server's innovative modular design offers the capability to upgrade to a 4-socket Cisco UCS B460 M4 server in a

cost-effective manner. Simply add another blade module, along with the Cisco UCS M4 Scalability Connector, to

double the computing, memory, and I/O capabilities of the server.

These innovative capabilities enable the Cisco UCS B260 M4 Blade Server to deliver the performance and

enterprise-critical stability for memory-intensive workloads, such as database, virtualization, and consolidation

applications. These mission-critical business workloads then become a competitive advantage by enabling you to

harness the value of your most important data assets.

The fabric-centric, architectural advantage of Cisco UCS also means that you do not need to purchase additional

power, cooling, and warranties or maintain excess switches and interface cards in each Cisco UCS blade chassis.

This feature gives you uncompromised expandability and versatility in your blade servers. As a result, the Cisco

UCS B260 M4 server is another example of a Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Server product that delivers leading

computing, memory, and I/O performance, resulting in exceptional performance levels and expandability options

for applications.

The Cisco UCS B260 M4 provides:

●

Two Intel

Xeon processor E7 v2, E7 v3 or E7 v4 product family

●

48 DDR3 or DDR4 memory DIMM slots

●

Two hot-pluggable drive bays for Hard Disk Drives (HDDs) or Solid State Disks (SSDs)

●

SAS controller on board with RAID 0 and 1 support

●

Three PCIe mezzanine slots, with one dedicated for optional Cisco UCS VIC 1340, and two slots for Cisco
UCS VIC 1380,

VIC port expander, or flash cards

●

Cost effective option to upgrade to the Cisco UCS B460 M4 4-socket blade server

Cisco UCS VIC 1340 and 1380 Technology

The Cisco UCS VIC 1340 is a 2-port 40-Gbps Ethernet or Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE)-capable mLOM

designed exclusively for the M4 generation of the Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Servers. When used in combination

with an optional port expander, the Cisco UCS VIC 1340 can be enabled to fully support both 40-Gbps ports.
