Huawei-FusionServer 2488H V5

Description

The Huawei FusionServer 2488H V5 is an enterprise-class 2U rack server designed for applications that require extremely high processing density, large memory capacity, and substantial I/O capability within a compact data-center footprint.

Unlike conventional two-socket servers, the 2488H V5 supports four Intel Xeon Scalable processors, allowing organizations to deploy significantly more CPU cores within a single 2U chassis. This architecture makes the server particularly suitable for highly parallel workloads, large-scale virtualization, high-performance databases, analytics, and other compute-intensive applications.

The server provides 48 DDR4 DIMM slots, supporting ECC Registered memory and very high memory capacities. This enables the platform to accommodate large virtualization environments, in-memory databases, data analytics, and other memory-intensive enterprise applications.

Storage configurations are flexible and can support 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drives and NVMe SSDs, depending on the installed backplane and chassis configuration. Hardware RAID controllers can be used to improve storage performance and provide data protection, while NVMe storage offers high I/O performance for latency-sensitive workloads.

The 2488H V5 provides extensive PCIe expansion capability, allowing installation of high-speed network adapters, Fibre Channel HBAs, RAID controllers, storage adapters, GPUs, and other accelerators. This makes the platform highly adaptable to specialized enterprise and HPC requirements.

For high availability, the server supports redundant hot-swappable power supplies, hot-swappable drives, and redundant cooling on applicable configurations. Huawei’s iBMC management controller provides remote monitoring, hardware configuration, diagnostics, firmware management, and system lifecycle administration.
