Description

This direct attach storage cable kit is purpose-built for the HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen11 liquid-cooled server, delivering x4 NVMe connectivity to a 12-drive EDSFF (E1.S) Box 2 cage in 4-processor (4P) configurations. It enables high-density, controller-free NVMe storage integration, providing x4 PCIe bandwidth per drive connection — ideal for data-intensive enterprise workloads demanding maximum storage throughput.

Designed exclusively for Box 2 storage population in liquid-cooled DL560 Gen11 4P systems, this kit is a mandatory component when deploying direct attach NVMe storage without a Tri-Mode storage controller. Note that mixing direct attach drives with Tri-Mode controller drives in the same system is not supported. Get it now at iptrading.com.au — authentic hardware, reliable service.

FAQs

Q: What server is this cable kit compatible with?
A: This cable kit is designed exclusively for the HPE ProLiant DL560 Gen11 in a liquid-cooled configuration. It is not intended for air-cooled variants or other ProLiant server models.

Q: Do I need a storage controller with this kit?
A: No. This kit enables direct attach NVMe connectivity, meaning drives connect directly to the CPU/platform without requiring a separate Tri-Mode or HBA storage controller. Note that mixing direct attach drives with Tri-Mode controller drives in the same system is not supported.

Q: What is 'Box 2' and why does it matter for my DL560 Gen11?
A: In 4-processor (4P) DL560 Gen11 systems, storage population typically begins at Box 2. This cable kit is specifically designed to support that Box 2 storage position, making it the correct choice for 4P server builds.

Q: What drive form factor does this kit support?
A: This kit supports EDSFF (E1.S) drives in a 12-drive cage configuration, enabling high-density NVMe storage suitable for demanding enterprise workloads.

Q: Can I purchase this cable kit in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an authorised Australian B2B IT hardware reseller stocking HPE ProLiant accessories including P55328-B21. Contact us for pricing, availability, and volume enquiries.

Q: Is this the correct kit if I have a 2-processor DL560 Gen11 configuration?
A: No. This kit is specifically designed for 4-processor (4P) DL560 Gen11 systems and Box 2 storage placement. Different cable kits are required for 2P configurations or other box positions.
