What are the key specifications of the Cisco HX-CPU-6140 processor?
The Cisco HX-CPU-6140 is an 18-core processor running at 2.3 GHz with a 24.75MB cache and DDR4 memory support, consuming 140W of power. This Intel Xeon-based processor is designed for high-performance computing environments and supports 64-bit processing with overclocking capabilities up to 3.70 GHz. We offer this component as part of our comprehensive Cisco server and networking product lineup available from barcodesinc.com.
Is the Cisco HX-CPU-6140 compatible with Cisco HyperFlex systems?
Yes, the HX-CPU-6140 is designed as a processor upgrade for Cisco HyperFlex and HX-series systems, making it compatible with HyperFlex infrastructure platforms. This processor upgrade allows you to enhance computing performance in existing HyperFlex deployments. Contact us today for compatibility verification with your specific HyperFlex configuration and system requirements.
What is the difference between the HX-CPU-6140 and the HX-CPU-6142M?
The HX-CPU-6142M features 16 cores at 2.60 GHz with a 22MB L3 cache and operates at 150W, making it a more power-efficient option compared to the HX-CPU-6140's 18-core design at 2.3 GHz. The 6142M also includes higher overclocking speeds at 3.70 GHz and is built on the same 14nm process technology. Both are available from us for different performance and power consumption requirements in your data center.
What servers and systems support the Cisco HX-CPU-6140 processor upgrade?
The Cisco HX-CPU-6140 is compatible with Cisco HyperFlex HX-series systems and select Cisco UCS rack servers that support Socket 3647 processors. This processor upgrade works with systems like the UCSX-410C-M7 and other Intel Xeon Gold-compatible platforms in the Cisco portfolio.
