The 2U Server Most Buyers Get Wrong
When most buyers compare 2U rack servers, they stare at CPU generations and clock speeds. O 385 W TDP ceiling of the 4th and 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable is the same everywhere – the real differences between platforms hide in three places: thermal headroom, memory fault tolerance, and operations automation. That is exactly where the FusionServer 2288H V7 separates itself.
The 2288H V7 is a new-generation 2U 2-socket rack server engineered for SDS, VDI, CDN, virtualização, big data, base de dados, cenários de nuvem, accelerated inference, SME workloads, OA and web applications. It delivers enterprise-grade reliability with a lower power bill and dramatically simpler day-2 operations.
Configuration Matrix
The 2288H V7 ships in four drive-bay configurations, so you match density to workload instead of over-buying chassis:
| Configuration | compartimentos de unidade | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 2288H V7 (8 drives) | 8 x 2,5″ SAS/SATA | Light virtualization, branch workloads |
| 2288H V7 (12 drives) | 12 x 2,5″ or 3.5″ mix | General enterprise consolidation |
| 2288H V7 (24 drives) | 24 x 2,5″ SAS/SATA | VDI, dense virtualization |
| 2288H V7 (25 drives) | 25 x 2,5″ with NVMe options | High-speed flash, database caching |
Across the family you can scale to 45 x 2.5-inch drives or 28 x NVMe U.2 SSDs for high-speed flash, or run 12-18 x 3.5-inch drives where capacity per bay matters more.

Processador & Memória
Compute. One or two 4th or 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors with TDP up to 385 W per socket, on the Emmitsburg PCH. Aquilo é 50% better overall performance over the previous generation for the same power envelope.
Memória. 32 x DDR5 DIMM slots at 5600 Mt/s, plus 16 additional DDR5 DIMMs supported through CXL technology – até 48 DIMMs in total with the CXL option. The unique AI memory fault self-healing algorithm predicts and contains memory errors before they crash the workload, reducing system downtime by 66%.
Armazenar & ATAQUE
Hot-swappable drive configurations cover 8 para 35 x 2.5-inch SAS/SATA drives/SSDs (até 45 x 2.5-inch or 28 x SSDs NVMe), 12 para 18 x 3.5-inch SAS/SATA drives, and dedicated 4/8/16/24 x NVMe SSD layouts. Flash storage boot is handled by dual M.2 SSDs with hardware RAID and hot swap.
The RAID controller supports ATAQUE 0, 1, 10, 1E, 5, 50, 6 e 60 with supercapacitor-backed cache protection against power failure, plus RAID level migration, dirigir em roaming, self-diagnosis and remote web-based configuration – so a drive failure or a rebalance never requires a service visit.
Rede & Expansão PCIe
Two FlexIO card slots are dedicated to OCP 3.0 NICS, supporting hot swap and PCIe 5.0 – 100% higher interconnect bandwidth than PCIe 4.0 for high-speed networking. In total the 2288H V7 offers up to 19 x Slots PCIe (2 x FlexIO + 17 x standard), 8 of which support PCIe 5.0. For accelerated workloads, it accepts 4 x largura dupla ou 14 x cartões GPU de largura única, covering inference and rendering without a separate appliance.

Poder, Resfriamento & Físico
- fonte de alimentação: 900 C / 1200 C / 1500 C / 2000 C / 3000 W Platinum/Titanium hot-swappable power supplies in 1+1 redundância, with industry-leading conversion efficiency (12.5% lower power loss than industry average).
- Resfriamento: 4 x hot-swappable counter-rotating fans in N+1 redundancy with Advanced Extended Volume Air Cooling (EVAC) – 50% better heat dissipation than a single heat sink, plus algorithm-optimized fan/CPU power saving up to 8%.
- Dimensões: 86.1 milímetro x 447 milímetro x 798 milímetros (3.39 x 17.60 x 31.42 em), same chassis for 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch drive versions. Weight varies by configuration (drives, PSUs, risers) – request the exact figure with your build.
- Temperatura: 5°C to 50°C (41°F to 122°F), compatível com ASHRAE Classes A1/A2/A3/A4 – it runs where air-cooled racks run hot.
Segurança & Gerenciamento
Segurança. Senha de inicialização, senha do administrador, Módulo de plataforma confiável (TPM) 2.0, moldura de segurança, secure boot and chassis intrusion detection. The Root of Trust (RoT)-based secure boot validates firmware at every layer, so the server cannot boot tampered code.
Gerenciamento. The integrated iBMC chip carries a dedicated management GE port and supports Redfish, SNMP and IPMI 2.0, with an HTML5/VNC KVM remote console, virtual media, Agentless monitoring, telemetry, fault diagnosis and full out-of-band control. Optional FusionDirector adds fleet-wide automation: automatic version push (20x faster upgrades), 75% tool-assisted deployment steps (10x faster rollout) e 100% accurate asset stocktaking.

OS Compatibility
Certified for FusionOS, Microsoft Windows Server, Servidor SUSE Linux Enterprise, VMware ESXi, Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CENTOS, Oráculo, Ubuntu, Debian and openEuler – every mainstream enterprise OS and hypervisor is covered out of the box.
