FAQs

Q: What server is the P81000-B21 cable kit compatible with?
A: This cable kit is designed exclusively for the HPE ProLiant Compute DL580 Gen12 server in a 2-processor (2P) configuration. It is not compatible with 4-processor DL580 Gen12 configurations or earlier DL580 generations.

A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is a trusted Australian B2B IT hardware reseller supplying HPE server accessories including the P81000-B21. Contact us or order online for fast local fulfilment.

Q: Does this cable kit support NVMe drives alongside SAS and SATA drives simultaneously?
A: Yes. The x4 Tri-Mode interface supports SAS, SATA, and NVMe concurrently, giving the DL580 Gen12 the flexibility to populate the 8SFF bays with mixed drive types as workload requirements demand.
