The Versatile 2U Platform for Software-Defined Everything

The xFusion FusionServer 2288H V7 is the most configurable server in the xFusion lineup – a 2U dual-socket platform supporting up to 2x 4th/5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors at 385W TDP, 32 DDR5 DIMMs (8 TB), 25x 2.5-inch bays with 28 NVMe support, and 14 PCIe 5.0 slots. It is the go-to choice for software-defined storage, virtual desktop infrastructure, content delivery networks, and database clusters where storage density and I/O throughput define performance.

Ideal Workloads

Software-Defined Storage: Ceph, VMware vSAN, and MinIO clusters benefit from the 2288H V7’s 28 NVMe bays – more drives per node means fewer nodes per usable terabyte. 14 PCIe 5.0 slots provide the network bandwidth to keep 28 NVMe drives fed.
VDI: Support up to 300 concurrent virtual desktops with GPU acceleration for knowledge workers, designers, and engineers. The 14 PCIe slots enable both GPU risers and high-speed NICs without slot contention.
CDN and Streaming: High-density NVMe storage per node reduces edge POP footprint. Dual OCP 3.0 slots keep networking separate from PCIe expansion.
Database Clusters: 25 drive bays provide headroom for data growth without adding nodes. Balance SAS HDD bulk storage with NVMe caching tiers in the same chassis.
