HP Inc BW0Z4UT#ABA HP SmartBuy Z2 SFF G1i Workstation Desktop PC
Overview
The BW0Z4UT#ABA is HP's SmartBuy-configured Z2 Small Form Factor G1i workstation — a compact commercial desktop built around Intel's 15th-generation Core Ultra 5 235 processor. With a 14-core (6P+8E) architecture, 24 MB Smart Cache, and a base power envelope of 65 W (up to 121 W turbo), this machine fits standard desktop footprints while delivering enough headroom for demanding workstation workloads. The integrated Intel AI Boost NPU adds dedicated AI inferencing at up to 13 TOPS, with the full platform reaching 27 TOPS total — meaningful for deployments running on-device AI inference, VMS analytics processing, or AI-accelerated video workloads without a discrete GPU. Ships with 16 GB RAM, a 512 GB M.2 PCIe NVMe 2280 TLC 4x4 SSD for fast OS and application load times, and Windows 11 Pro 64-bit.
Compatibility
Designed for HP Inc workstation ecosystems. The Z2 SFF G1i platform accepts standard DDR5 SO-DIMM memory expansion and M.2 PCIe NVMe storage, making it compatible with commercial off-the-shelf upgrade components. Windows 11 Pro 64-bit enables compatibility with enterprise video management software platforms, domain join, BitLocker, and remote management via standard Windows deployment tools (SCCM, Intune). The LGA 1851 (Socket V1) platform is specific to Intel Core Ultra Series 2 processors — confirm socket compatibility before any CPU-level service work. As a workstation desktop, it integrates with HP's commercial management stack including HP Manageability Integration Kit and BIOS-level fleet management. For environments running NVR software or AI-accelerated analytics on-premise, the Intel AI Boost NPU offloads inferencing from the CPU cores, sustaining throughput without saturating the processor under mixed workloads.
Installation Notes
Physical footprint is 19.00 x 15.50 x 7.80 in — verify rack shelf or desk clearance before deployment. Unit weight is 13.10 lb; standard desktop placement applies. No specialized tools or torque specs required for standard deployment. SmartBuy SKUs are preconfigured and ship ready-to-provision; confirm the exact memory and storage configuration matches your deployment baseline before ordering, as SmartBuy SKUs are fixed-spec and not CTO-configurable at point of sale.
