About the HPE P55181-B21 - HPE DL560 Gen11 AC with P408i-O CTO Server

High-performance virtualisation and mission-critical workloads benefit from the HPE P55181-B21's quad-socket architecture and PCIe Gen 5.0 connectivity. The HPE DL560 Gen11 AC with P408i-O CTO Server is a 2U rack-mount system engineered for organisations requiring maximum compute density and I/O throughput in compact form factors. This quad-socket platform supports 4th Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors across its four processor sockets, delivering substantial multi-threaded performance for virtualisation hosts, database servers, and large-scale compute applications. The system accommodates up to 48 DIMM slots—12 per processor—of DDR5 RDIMM or LRDIMM memory, enabling configurations tailored to memory-intensive workloads. The integrated HPE Smart Array P408i-O SR Gen10+ storage controller features 8 internal ports with 2 GB FBWC and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60, providing flexible data protection strategies.

Enterprise IT procurement teams, infrastructure architects, and virtualisation administrators choose the P55181-B21 for its balance of performance and scalability within a compact footprint. The HPE iLO 6 management controller enables out-of-band administration and monitoring, while HPE Silicon Root of Trust, Secure Boot, and the iLO Security Dashboard address stringent security requirements. The system ships in Configure-to-Order configuration, allowing customers to specify processor counts, memory capacity, and storage options aligned with exact workload demands. Support for Microsoft Windows Server, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server, and VMware vSphere—per HPE SPOCK compatibility—ensures broad operating system flexibility. Redundant AC power supply capability provides operational resilience for 24/7 production environments.

The P55181-B21 is ideal for organisations building high-density compute infrastructure across data centres in the UAE and Middle East region.
