Cisco SP B200 M5 Blade Server, 2x 5118, 6x16 GB | UCS, Blade

Keep critical workloads close to the fabric with a Cisco UCS blade designed for dense, centrally managed compute. This SP B200 M5 configuration pairs two Intel Xeon 5118 processors with 6 x 16 GB of memory and VIC 1340 connectivity, giving you the compute headroom and network integration needed for virtualization clusters, application consolidation, and private cloud nodes. The value of this platform is in how it fits into UCS operations. Blade architecture reduces rack complexity while preserving serviceability, and the shared infrastructure model helps standardize provisioning across large server pools. For teams replacing older blade generations or building out a controlled UCS footprint, this configuration delivers a balanced mix of CPU capacity, memory bandwidth, and fabric connectivity without moving to oversized rack servers. Choose this blade when uptime, density, and operational consistency matter more than commodity hardware pricing. It is built for environments where every slot counts and where predictable integration with Cisco UCS matters to the lifecycle of the platform.
