About the Gigabyte R163-S32 1U Dual Intel Xeon Scalable 6 Server
The Gigabyte R163-S32 delivers enterprise-class connectivity with 2 x 1GbE ports—comprising a dedicated management interface and a LAN-on-Motherboard (LOM) port—plus 2 x PCIe 5.0 x16 LP slots for high-speed peripheral expansion, making it an ideal platform for storage architects and network engineers tasked with building next-generation datacenter infrastructure. This 1U rack-mount server combines dual Intel Xeon Scalable 6 processors (Socket E1 / LGA 4677) with 16 DDR5 RDIMM/MRDIMM slots—8 per CPU—to deliver substantial compute and memory bandwidth for demanding workloads. The R163-S32 supports optional OCP 3.0 mezzanine NICs for customers requiring additional network connectivity, while its 12 x 3.5-inch hot-swap drive bays, dual 2 x M.2 slots, and NVMe/SATA/SAS storage interface options provide flexible capacity and performance configurations.
Gigabyte engineered the R163-S32 with enterprise reliability at its core: redundant hot-swap 80 PLUS Platinum power supplies and hot-swap redundant fan modules eliminate single points of failure, while the ASPEED AST2600 Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) delivers IPMI 2.0, Redfish, and KVM over IP capabilities for remote administration. The system operates across the 10°C to 35°C temperature range and is fully compatible with Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Ubuntu Server, and VMware ESXi environments. The standard 19-inch rack-compatible chassis fits seamlessly into existing datacenter footprints. Organizations seeking a dual-socket platform with DDR5 memory support, substantial NVMe scalability, and comprehensive remote management will find the Gigabyte R163-S32 (part number R163-S32) a compelling choice for virtualization, HPC, and storage-intensive applications.

Frequently Asked Questions about Gigabyte R163-S32 1U Dual Intel Xeon Scalable 6 Server
Can you supply the Gigabyte R163-S32 1U Dual Intel Xeon Scalable 6 Server configured to my BOM?
Yes. Submit your CTO BOM (CPU SKU, memory layout, drives, NIC, GPU, OS preload) in the RFQ and we return a configured-to-order quote with realistic lead time. Standard CTO turn is 4-6 weeks vendor-side.
Do you offer Dell ProSupport / HPE Foundation Care alongside the hardware?
Yes — we attach the matching support contract during quoting. Available tiers: ProSupport / ProSupport Plus / Mission Critical (Dell), Foundation Care / Proactive Care 24x7 (HPE), Premier (Lenovo). Recommend 3y minimum for production.
Is rack installation available in Dubai / GCC?
Yes for Dubai (same-week scheduling) and on quotation for the broader GCC via certified partners. Includes rack-and-stack, cable management, OS install, and post-install verification.
Why buy from Omnixon Global instead of going direct to the OEM?
Omnixon Global is a single supplier across every major brand — genuine channel-sourced hardware, full manufacturer support, pre-sales engineering and BOM validation. Submit a Request for Quote (RFQ) and our team handles sourcing and configuration end-to-end.
