Description

The HPE ProLiant DL325 Gen12 4SFF Front GPU Box Cable Kit (P84197-B21) enables the front GPU Box 1/2 configuration on HPE ProLiant Compute DL325 Gen12 GPU CTO servers. Routing storage connectivity through a PCIe Slot 2 controller interface, this kit supports four Small Form Factor drives with x4 PCIe lanes each — a critical enablement component for factory-integrated GPU server builds requiring front-bay SFF storage alongside GPU acceleration.

Designed specifically for the DL325 Gen12 GPU CTO server (P84204-B21), this cable kit is part of HPE's Accelerator Enablement Options portfolio. Sibling variants are available for OCP SlotB (P84198-B21), EDSFF bay configurations, and Direct Attach deployments, ensuring the right connectivity path for each storage and GPU topology.

FAQs

Q: What server is this cable kit compatible with?
A: P84197-B21 is designed for the HPE ProLiant Compute DL325 Gen12 GPU CTO Server (P84204-B21). It is not a universal fit and should only be used with this specific GPU-configured server model.

Q: What does this cable kit actually enable?
A: This kit enables the front GPU Box 1/2 configuration on the DL325 Gen12, connecting four SFF drive bays to the server's storage controller via PCIe Slot 2 with x4 lanes per drive — allowing front-bay SFF storage to coexist with GPU acceleration hardware.

Q: How does this differ from sibling cable kit SKUs?
A: The P84197-B21 routes storage through PCIe Slot 2. Sibling kits cater to different controller interfaces and bay types: P84198-B21 uses OCP SlotB, while P84206-B21, P84203-B21, and P84363-B21 support EDSFF bays and Direct Attach configurations respectively.

Q: Is this kit required for a GPU CTO configuration or is it optional?
A: This cable kit is a required enablement component for DL325 Gen12 GPU CTO configurations that use the 4SFF front bay with PCIe Slot 2 as the controller interface. It must be factory-integrated as part of a Configure-To-Order build.

Q: Can I purchase this cable kit in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. iptrading.com.au stocks HPE ProLiant server accessories and enablement kits including P84197-B21. Contact the team for pricing, availability, and compatibility advice for your DL325 Gen12 deployment.

Q: Does this kit include any storage drives or GPU hardware?
A: No. P84197-B21 is strictly a cable kit that provides the physical connectivity path between the 4SFF front bay and the PCIe Slot 2 controller. Storage drives, GPUs, and other hardware must be sourced separately.
