The Intel Xeon Gold 6248R processor (part number CD8069504449401) is built on the third-generation Xeon Scalable (Cascade Lake) platform, which uses the FCLGA4189 socket and supports quad-channel DDR4 memory at up to 2933 MHz. This architecture allows configurations of up to 768 GB of RAM per socket, delivering the memory bandwidth needed for mixed workloads that balance compute intensity with data access patterns. The processor itself provides 24 cores and 48 threads, clocking from a 3.0 GHz base frequency up to 4.0 GHz under Intel Turbo Boost, paired with 35 MB of L3 cache. This combination of core density, frequency range, and memory support makes the 6248R a practical choice for enterprises and data-centre operators managing workloads that demand consistent performance without pushing into the highest power envelope.

Built on Intel's proven 14 nm Cascade Lake process, the Xeon Gold 6248R operates at 205W TDP—a design point that reflects mature manufacturing and thermal efficiency. This matters in real operating environments where your facility's power distribution, cooling infrastructure, and operational expenses are tied directly to per-socket consumption. Data-centre infrastructure managers and procurement teams at large enterprises favour processors in this TDP range because they reduce the cost per watt while remaining predictable in production clusters. The 6248R is not a low-power option, nor is it positioned at the extreme end of the power spectrum; instead, it occupies a well-understood middle ground where thermal modelling is straightforward and integration into existing 2- and 4-socket systems is uncomplicated.

The performance profile of the Intel Xeon Gold 6248R makes it suitable for workloads that include database operations, virtualisation hosts, application servers, and moderate-scale machine learning inference. Storage architects often spec this processor for unstructured data pipelines where sustained memory throughput and consistent integer performance drive the economics. A systems administrator deploying a new generation of VMware or KVM hosts will find the 24-core density sufficient for consolidating dozens of virtual machines while retaining per-core performance for latency-sensitive applications. The processor's frequency headroom—the ability to push from 3.0 GHz base to 4.0 GHz turbo—ensures that single-threaded operations don't starve in an otherwise parallel environment. Part number CD8069504449401 has proven durability in production, with broad ecosystem support from hyperscalers, systems vendors, and software optimisers who have tuned their stacks specifically for Cascade Lake.

Integration and compatibility are strengths of this generation. The quad-channel DDR4 design lets you mix and match memory SKUs more flexibly than earlier platforms, and the FCLGA4189 socket is widely represented in OEM platforms from major vendors. If your organisation is consolidating or upgrading an existing Xeon estate, the move from older Gold or Platinum SKUs to the 6248R often requires only a BIOS update on compatible boards. Network engineers appreciate the consistency of the Xeon Gold line across multiple vendors, which simplifies procurement and spares management. The processor integrates Intel's latest security features—including deeper microcode protections for transient execution exploits—making it a sensible choice for regulated workloads where compliance and vulnerability tracking matter.

Omnixon Global supplies the Intel Xeon Gold 6248R processor (CD8069504449401) to data-centre operators, enterprise IT teams, and systems integrators across the GCC, broader Asia-Pacific, and Europe. We maintain stock of key Xeon SKUs and can source competitive pricing for bulk configurations. If you are planning a data-centre refresh, expanding AI lab infrastructure, or building out virtualisation capacity, we invite you to submit an RFQ detailing your required quantities, target delivery timeframe, and any specific board or memory pairing requirements. Our technical team in Dubai can help match the right processor generation to your workload profile and support your procurement from quote through deployment.
