Built on the LGA4677 socket and paired with DDR5 memory across eight channels supporting speeds up to 4800 MT/s, the Intel Xeon Platinum 8480+ delivers 60 cores and 120 threads within a single processor. Maximum memory capacity reaches 4 TB per socket, and the platform supports up to two sockets for scaled configurations. This fourth-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processor—codenamed Sapphire Rapids—represents a substantial step forward for data centre operators managing memory-intensive workloads, database servers, and AI-driven analytics environments.

The 8480+ runs at a 2.0 GHz base frequency with a maximum turbo of 3.8 GHz, drawing 350 watts at full load. Intel manufactured this chip using their 7-nanometre process technology with enhanced SuperFin architecture, which balances single-threaded responsiveness against sustained multi-core throughput. The part number CM806880553740016 (manufacturer part number CM8068888553740) identifies the full engineering specification, and when you source the Intel Xeon Platinum 8480+ through Omnixon Global, you receive the genuine component with proper chain-of-custody documentation and warranty coverage across GCC and broader Asian markets.

What distinguishes this processor in real-world deployments is the combination of deep cache hierarchy, integrated accelerators, and connectivity breadth. The 105 MB of Intel Smart Cache absorbs working sets that would otherwise stall memory operations; the Intel Advanced Matrix Extensions handle matrix operations natively, making this part particularly valuable for machine learning inference and training clusters. The Data Streaming Accelerator and In-Memory Analytics Accelerator offload specific workload patterns—data movement and analytic filtering—that would otherwise consume core cycles. For infrastructure teams building high-throughput OLAP systems or hybrid transactional-analytical workloads, these integrated engines reduce overall system cost and power consumption. Infrastructure architects and AI platform engineers evaluating processors for large-scale deployments often prioritize this configuration because the accelerators translate directly to lower total-cost-of-ownership when running standardized algorithmic workloads.

Connectivity on the 8480+ spans PCIe 5.0 with 80 lanes per socket, enabling direct attachment of modern high-bandwidth accelerators, FPGA cards, and NVMe storage arrays without bottleneck. Support for CXL 1.1 (Compute Express Link) opens pathways for disaggregated memory architectures and pooled-fabric deployments—increasingly common in hyperscaler environments where memory and compute are decoupled. The inclusion of Intel QuickAssist Technology provides hardware-backed cryptographic acceleration, a feature that storage administrators and security-focused network teams integrate into encrypted NAS systems and secure data pipelines. The processor supports both SSE4.2 and AVX-512 instruction sets, ensuring backward compatibility with legacy applications while enabling modern vectorised code to achieve substantial performance gains. When data centre teams evaluate socket choices for next-generation platforms, the breadth of these interfaces and accelerators on the 8480+ often justifies migration from earlier Xeon generations.

The Xeon Platinum 8480+ operates within a two-socket maximum configuration, meaning a single motherboard can host up to 120 cores and 240 threads with 8 TB of addressable DRAM. This density supports consolidated database servers, large-scale virtualisation hosts, and containerised Kubernetes clusters where node consolidation reduces operational overhead. Intel's engineering choices on this part reflect years of data centre feedback: the memory speed and channel count prevent DRAM from becoming the limiting factor, the cache depth keeps main-memory latency manageable, and the integrated accelerators mean that specialised workloads do not require separate co-processor cards in many scenarios. For organisations shipping workloads across multiple geographies, sourcing the part number CM806880553740016 from a regional distributor like Omnixon Global ensures consistent platform specifications and reduces lead-time variability.
