643086-B21 HP ProLiant DL580 G7 (E7) Configure-to-Order Server

The 643086-B21 is the HP ProLiant DL580 G7 (E7) configure-to-order server, a 4U rack server that takes up to four Intel Xeon processors. It is the base model for the Intel Xeon E7-4800 series processors, which HP supports only in the 643086-B2x configure-to-order server and in E7 pre-configured models.

The base configuration includes an integrated HP NC375i quad port gigabit server adapter, four DL580G7/DL980 G7 (E7) memory cartridges, five standard PCI Express slots, an HP Smart Array P410i controller with zero memory, four redundant hot-plug fans, an SFF SAS/SATA/SSD drive cage and an integrated iLO 3 management processor. Power supplies are selected separately.

Processor kits are ordered as a -L21 kit first and -B21 kits for further processors, for example the 643067-B21 Intel Xeon E7-4870 ten-core kit. The 644172-B21 memory cartridge adds capacity, with a maximum of eight cartridges, and E7 series processors support up to 2TB of memory (64 x 32GB). Up to 11 expansion slots are supported, all full-length and full-height.

Power supply options are the HP 1200W Common Slot Platinum kit 578322-B21 and the HP 1200W Common Slot Silver kit 500172-B21, and the two types cannot be mixed in one server. The PCI Express kit 588137-B21 and the PCI-X Combo Express kit 588139-B21 are the DL580 G7 expansion options. The sibling model 643086-B22 uses the HP Ethernet 1Gb 4-port 331i integrated adapter in place of the NC375i. A Gen9 four-socket rack server is the 793310-B21 ProLiant DL580 Gen9 rack server, and more rack and blade servers are in HPE server systems.
