Data Sheet
Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server
Product Overview
The Cisco
®
Unified Computing System
™
(Cisco UCS
™
) combines Cisco UCS B-Series Blade Servers and C-
Series Rack Servers with networking and storage access in a single converged system that simplifies
management and delivers greater cost efficiency and agility with increased visibility and control. The latest server
expansion of the Cisco UCS portfolio includes the new Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server along with the new
Cisco UCS C220 M3 Rack Server (one rack unit [1RU]) and Cisco UCS C240 M3 Rack Server (2RU). These three
new servers increase compute density through more cores and cache balanced with more memory capacity and
drives and with faster I/O. Together these server improvements and complementary Cisco UCS system
advancements deliver the best combination of features and cost efficiency to support IT’s diverse needs.
The Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server delivers performance, versatility, and density without compromise. It
addresses the broadest set of workloads, from IT and web infrastructure, through distributed database. Building on
the success of the Cisco UCS B200 M2 Blade Server, the enterprise-class Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Server
further extends the capabilities of the Cisco UCS portfolio in a half-width blade form factor. The Cisco UCS B200
M3 harnesses the power of the latest Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E5-2600 product family, with up to 768 GB of RAM
(using 32-GB DIMMs), two disk drives, and up to dual 4x 10 Gigabit Ethernet throughput. In addition, Cisco UCS
has the architectural advantage of not having to power and cool excess switches in each blade chassis. With a
larger power budget per blade server, Cisco can design uncompromised expandability and capabilities in its blade
servers, as evidenced by the new Cisco UCS B200 M3, with its leading memory slot and drive capacity.
The Cisco UCS B200 M3 provides:
●
Two, multi-core, Intel
®
Xeon
®
processor E5-2600 product family CPUs, for up to 16 processing cores
●
24 DIMM slots for industry-standard double-data-rate 3 (DDR3) memory running up to 1600 MHz and up to
768 GB of total memory (using 32-GB DIMMs)
●
Two optional, hot-pluggable SAS or SATA hard disk drives (HDDs) or solid-state drives (SSDs)
●
Remote management through a Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) that implements policy
established in Cisco UCS Manager
