HPE P57010-B21 Concise Descriptor

Overview

The HPE P57010-B21 is a specialized cable kit designed to facilitate NVMe storage connectivity within compatible HPE ProLiant server platforms. This accessory ensures that NVMe drives can be properly integrated and powered, enabling high-speed data transfer essential for demanding workloads. It is specifically engineered for use in environments requiring direct NVMe attachment, such as those utilizing high-performance storage arrays or boot drives for critical applications. The P57010-B21 model is a key component for maintaining system integrity and performance when configuring or expanding storage capabilities.

Compatibility

This NVMe cable kit is designed for specific HPE ProLiant server configurations. It is intended for use with servers that support 20 EDSFF (Enterprise & Data Center SSD Form Factor) NVMe drives. Refer to the server's technical documentation or HPE QuickSpecs for precise model compatibility, as this kit is not a universal solution and requires a matching server chassis and backplane configuration.

Installation Notes

The HPE P57010-B21 requires careful installation to ensure proper NVMe drive recognition and function. Ensure the server is powered down and properly grounded before proceeding. The kit includes specific cabling for power and data connections between the EDSFF NVMe drives and the server's motherboard or backplane. Proper routing of cables is essential to avoid interference and ensure airflow within the chassis. Installation should be performed by trained personnel familiar with HPE server hardware.
