Description
The Cisco UCS-SP-5108-AC3 UCS 5108 Blade Server Chassis is a foundational component of the Cisco Unified Computing System, engineered to deliver scalable, high-density compute infrastructure for modern data centers. As Cisco’s first blade-server chassis design, the UCS 5108 provides a simplified, unified architecture that reduces cabling, eliminates the need for dedicated chassis management modules, and lowers overall operational complexity.
Housed in a 6RU rack-mountable form factor, the chassis supports up to eight half-width or four full-width Cisco UCS B-Series blade servers, enabling flexible deployment configurations within a single enclosure. Standard front-to-back airflow and redundant, hot-swappable cooling and power components ensure consistent performance and high availability in enterprise and mission-critical environments.
The SmartPlay Select configuration includes integrated fabric connectivity, bundled fabric extenders, and essential accessories, making it an efficient, deployment-ready solution for organizations seeking simplified scaling across up to 20 chassis without added infrastructure overhead.
