HPE DL300 OCP2 X16 Enable KIT - P48828-B21

HPE P48828-B21 OCP2 x16 Enable Kit for DL300-Series Servers

Overview

The HPE P48828-B21 is an OCP 2.0 x16 enable kit designed to unlock or expand Open Compute Project (OCP) mezzanine card connectivity in HPE ProLiant DL300-series servers. If your DL300-series deployment requires an OCP 2.0 NIC or accelerator at the x16 electrical slot and the platform ships without that connectivity pre-enabled, the P48828-B21 provides the internal hardware components needed to bring that slot live — avoiding a full platform swap for a connectivity upgrade.

Compatibility

Designed for the HPE ProLiant DL300 server family. Verify your specific DL300 chassis and system board revision against HPE's QuickSpecs before ordering — OCP slot enablement kits are generation- and board-revision-specific. This kit is not interchangeable with OCP 3.0 or PCIe riser accessories.

Installation Notes

Dimensions are 7.50 x 9.60 x 1.10 in and weight is 0.30 lb, consistent with an internal bracket-and-connector assembly. Installation requires access to the server's internal OCP mezzanine bay; plan for a full chassis power-down and static-safe work environment. No external tools beyond standard server maintenance kit are implied by the evidence. Confirm HPE service documentation for torque specs and cable routing before install.
