HPE ProLiant DL380a Gen11

The HPE ProLiant DL380a Gen11 is a rack-optimized 2U 2P platform designed for high-performance AI with advanced GPU acceleration. It features three independent power domains—including two dedicated GPU domains with six power supplies each—to deliver efficient, reliable power to both the system and GPUs. Powered by 4th and 5th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors with up to 56 cores, the HPE ProLiant DL380a Gen11 supports up to four double-wide GPUs and high-throughput PCIe Gen5 I/O. Inference performance can be further enhanced by connecting two adjacent GPUs using NVIDIA's 2-way NVLink Bridge, making it a strong foundation for scalable, secure AI workloads.

What's new

  • Support for 4 double-wide or 8 single-wide GPUs in a 2U server for intensive compute acceleration.
  • Powered by 4th and 5th Gen Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors with next-generation technology that support up to 64 cores at 350W and 24 DIMMs for DDR5 memory at speeds up to 5600 MHz.
  • Support for up to 3 TB total DDR5 memory with 12 DIMM channels per processor delivers increased performance and lower power requirements.
  • Well-balanced I/O performance and capabilities across processors.
  • Includes HPE Integrated Lights-Out 6 (iLO 6) server management software that enables you to securely configure, monitor, and update your HPE ProLiant Gen11 servers seamlessly, from anywhere.
