Dell CN-0T7H04 Riser Board 3 for PowerEdge R620

Product Description

The Dell CN-0T7H04 is identified as Riser Board 3 for the Dell PowerEdge R620 server. In multi-riser systems like the R620, different riser boards often provide specific configurations of PCIe slots to maximize expansion options within the server's chassis. Riser Board 3 typically occupies a particular slot on the motherboard and offers a set of PCIe slots that complement those found on other riser boards within the same server model. This riser board is engineered to accommodate various types of PCI Express adapter cards. These can include, but are not limited to, high-speed network interface cards (NICs), Fibre Channel adapters for SAN connectivity, RAID controllers for advanced storage management, or other specialized I/O cards. The specific PCIe generation and lane configuration (e.g., x8, x16) of the slots on this riser board will determine the types and performance capabilities of the cards that can be installed. By providing these additional expansion slots, the CN-0T7H04 allows administrators to customize the PowerEdge R620 server to meet specific application requirements. This flexibility is crucial for adapting the server to diverse workloads, such as virtualization, database hosting, or high-performance computing, ensuring that the server can be equipped with the necessary hardware to achieve optimal performance and functionality. Its integration is designed to be seamless, adhering to Dell's standards for reliability and compatibility within the R620 platform.
