Select the full server or network model. Closely named models and chassis variants may have different slots, power and accessory requirements.
Configurator 3.0 · OEM dependency engine
CPU → memory → storage → GPU → cooling → network → power, linked live.
The planner now links chassis topology, processor power class, DIMM population, drive media, RAID/HBA path, boot device, GPU slots, cooling mode, OCP/PCIe networking, ambient target and PSU headroom. Rules are sourced from current Dell manuals, HPE QuickSpecs, Lenovo Press guides and Supermicro product documentation.

1. Platform, chassis & CPU
Intel Xeon Scalable / Xeon Max. Planning TDP: 250W each.
2. Memory population

DDR5 RDIMM only.
3. Storage, RAID & boot
Chassis limit: 8 positions · SAS / SATA / NVMe
4. GPU & cooling
GPU TDP planning: none. Exact OEM GPU PN / riser matrix wins over generic limits.
5. Networking / OCP / AIOM
Networking is handled by the advanced PN/BOM workbench for this legacy profile.

Maximum listed port rate
One planned connection per device pair. Dashed links are unconfigured. Rate is a port capability, not guaranteed throughput. Upstream models and transceivers are not yet selected. This is not a stacking or Virtual Chassis group.
Review · Confirm the uplink module, port rate and transceivers required for this deployment.
Review · Choose a software or support option, or ask our team for advice.
Review · Confirm upstream equipment, optics, cabling, airflow, power, software release and required base entitlements before ordering.
Installation notes
- Airflow, power, software release and optics require review.
Configuration planning
Build the full picture of your installation.
Use the selectors above to prepare your list. Include existing parts and installation constraints so missing accessories and incompatible combinations can be discussed before ordering.
Select parts and requirements
Add component quantities and complete the available installation fields. For networks, include link speeds, optics and software requirements.
Review and share the list
Address flagged conflicts, keep any open questions and prepare the configuration text. Share the draft with your sales contact for a complete offer.
Server planning
Plan beyond CPU, memory and capacity.
- Memory population
- Account for the number of installed processors, DIMM generation, capacity, ranks and the model-specific slot arrangement.
- Storage installation
- Identify the drive interface and physical format, backplane, controller, carriers and cables. Include boot storage as a separate requirement.
- Power & thermal requirements
- Confirm AC or DC input, available voltage, PSU selection, fans, heatsinks and inlet conditions. Complete-system power capacity still needs review.
- Expansion & mechanical parts
- Account for risers, adapter positions, rails and other accessories. A part-number match does not confirm that a slot remains available.
Network planning
Connect the hardware and software requirements.
Ports & topology
Define the role of each switch and the links between devices. Keep management, stacking and data links separate in the requirement.
Choose a network modelOptics & cabling
Specify link speed, distance, fiber or copper media, connector and any breakout requirement. Confirm the exact module and software support.
Explore connectivityLicenses & support
Check feature entitlement, purchase unit, term and target model. A support contract is not a substitute for a required software license.
Plan a networkConfiguration questions
Know what the list does—and what needs confirmation.
Does a list without conflicts certify the whole system?
No. Checks cover the listed options and entered requirements. The complete system, firmware, power budget, software and installation still need confirmation.
Should I include parts already installed?
Yes. Include retained components when planning the final system so population, power, slot and accessory requirements are considered.
What if my exact platform is not selectable?
Use the catalog or parts finder and prepare the equipment list for review. Do not choose a similar model as a substitute for an exact compatibility check.
Has my request been sent when I save it?
No. The current form keeps a draft on your device. Share the prepared list with your sales contact using the contact details provided.
