Engineered for Density, Built for Speed

The Cisco UCS C225 M6 is a masterclass in high-density server design. By harnessing the power of AMD's architecture, it delivers a significant leap in performance-per-watt, allowing you to do more with less. Inside its compact 1RU form factor, it boasts up to 32 DDR4 DIMM slots, supporting a colossal 8 TB of memory. This makes it an ideal platform for in-memory databases, large-scale virtualization, and scientific computing workloads that were previously reserved for much larger systems.

Storage flexibility is central to its design. Choose between a chassis that supports a mix of up to 10 SAS/SATA and NVMe drives for balanced capacity and performance, or go all-in on speed with a model supporting 10 all-NVMe drives for maximum I/O throughput. Combined with PCIe Gen 4.0 expansion slots and flexible high-speed networking up to 100 GbE, the C225 M6 is built to eliminate bottlenecks and keep your data moving at the speed of business.

Key Features & Capabilities:

  • Dual AMD EPYC Power: Leverage the high core counts and superior performance of one or two AMD Milan or Rome processors to crush demanding, multi-threaded workloads.
  • Massive Memory Capacity: With 32 DIMM slots supporting up to 8 TB of high-speed 3200-MHz DDR4 memory, it’s built for memory-intensive applications.
  • Flexible Storage Options: Configure with up to 10 SAS/SATA/NVMe drives for versatile workloads or up to 10 all-NVMe drives for ultimate I/O performance.
  • Next-Generation I/O: Features multiple PCIe Gen 4.0 slots, doubling the bandwidth of previous generations for faster networking and accelerator card performance.
  • Advanced Networking: A modular LAN on motherboard (mLOM)/OCP 3.0 slot provides flexible, high-speed connectivity with options for up to dual 100 GbE ports.
  • Unified Management: Deploy as a standalone server managed by Cisco IMC or integrate seamlessly into the Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) managed by Cisco Intersight for powerful, cloud-based control.
  • Enterprise Reliability: Built with hot-swappable fans, drives, and redundant power supplies to ensure maximum uptime for your mission-critical services.

Available Chassis Models

  • UCSC-C225-M6S: Configured to support up to 10 Small Form Factor (SFF) drives, with flexible options for a mix of SAS/SATA and up to four NVMe drives.
  • UCSC-C225-M6N: Optimized for maximum I/O performance, this chassis supports up to 10 Small Form Factor (SFF) all-NVMe drives.

Use Cases of Cisco UCS C225 M6 SFF Rack Server

  • High-Performance Computing (HPC): The combination of high core-count AMD CPUs, massive memory bandwidth, and low-latency NVMe storage makes it the perfect engine for complex scientific simulations, financial modeling, and research.
  • Data-Intensive Workloads & Analytics: Process massive datasets in real-time. The server's exceptional I/O from all-NVMe configurations and high-speed networking are ideal for big data platforms, AI/ML model training, and business intelligence.
  • Virtualized Enterprise Environments: Consolidate your virtual infrastructure with confidence. The C225 M6's immense memory capacity and core density allow you to run more virtual machines per server, maximizing host utilization and reducing data center sprawl.
  • High-Density Compute Clusters: Build out powerful, scale-out clusters for web services, container orchestration, or software-defined storage in a minimal physical footprint, optimizing both power and cooling efficiency.
