Shape the Future of QuickSpecs - Your Input Matters

NEBS Level 3 and ETSI Certified

This section lists some of the steps required to configure a Factory Integrated Model compliant with typically requested telecom carrier NEBS and ETSI requirements.

  • Overview

    In addition to the worldwide compliance criteria applied to the commercial version of the product, all components listed in this document have been evaluated to the following criteria: SR-3580, Level 3, NEBS Criteria Levels

    • – GR-1089-CORE, EMC & Electrical Safety
    • – GR-63-CORE, Physical Protections
    • – GR-3108-CORE Outside Plant
    • – ETSI EN 300 386, Class A, EMC
    • – ETSI EN 300 019-2-1, Class 1.2, Storage
    • – ETSI EN 300 019-2-2, Class 2.3, Transportation
    • – ETSI EN 300 019-2-3, Class 3.1 & 3.1E, Stationary use at weather protected locations
    • – ETSI 300 132, Power supply interface to telecom equipment, -48VDC
    • – ETSI ETS 300 753, Acoustic noise

    To ensure only valid configurations are ordered, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends the use of an HPE approved configurator. Contact your local sales representative for information on configurable product offerings and requirements.


    Factory Integrated Models must start with a CTO Server. FIO indicates that this option is only available as a factory installable option. All Factory Integrated Models will be populated with sufficient hard drive blanks based on the number of initial hard drives ordered with the server. Some options may not be integrated at the factory. Contact your local sales representative for additional information.


    Notes:

    – To yield a carrier grade server that is compliant with all the required technical criteria, the product content is limited to what is listed in this document. In addition to this, the system maintenance switch #10 must be turned to the "ON" position to enable the expanded operating temperature range. Select HPE NEBS-compliant FIO Trigger System Setting (P40010-B21) for factory integration. Hardware from the following kits MUST be installed:

    • • HPE ProLiant DL3X5 Gen11 1U CPU Performance Heat Sink Kit (P58457-B21)
    • • HPE ProLiant DL3XX Gen11 1U Performance Fan Kit (P58462-B21)

    Please refer to the HPE DL325 Gen11 Carrier Grade Conversion documentation on the HPE web site: http://www.hpe.com/services/hpsc

Notes:

– HPE offers multiple Trade Agreement Act (TAA) compliant configurations to meet the needs of US Federal Government customers. These products are either manufactured or substantially transformed in a designated country. TAA compliance is only provided when HPE options are included as part of factory integrated orders (CTO).

– TAA compliant configuration requires TAA versions of the CTO Server SKUs.

– HPE Trusted Supply Chain (P36394-B21) is an optional security upgrade intended for agencies and regulated industries needing enhanced security and compliance needs. Applying this option to a DL325 Gen11 CTO server ensures it is built in the USA in a secured facility by vetted HPE personnel assigned to the manufacturing processes. A multitude of checkpoints/inspections for malicious microcode and counterfeit parts are performed throughout the server build, and additional safeguards are put in place against cyber-exploits throughout the server lifecycle. See “HPE Security” section within this document for more detail and learn more at http://www.hpe.com/security

Memory

Please select one or more memory from below.

For new DDR5 memory, please go to HPE DDR5 Smart Memory QuickSpecs

For details on the Memory Population Rules and Guidelines with AMD EPYC 9004 series processors, please go to:

https://www.hpe.com/psnow/doc/a50007481enw

Notes:

– Quantity of memory DIMMs selected per socket must be 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, or 12.

– The maximum memory speed and capacity is a function of the memory type, memory configuration, and processor model.

– The maximum speed capability of the memory system is governed by the combination of the CPU and any other DIMMs installed in the server. If higher speed DIMMs are installed with a CPU that only supports a lower memory speed, the DIMMs will only run at the (lower) memory speed supported by the processor. Likewise, if memory DIMMs are mixed with slower DIMMs within a server, all DIMMs will run at the slower memory speed. For further information please refer to the Memory Population Rules for your specific server.
