HPE P74716-B21 4EDSFF Direct Cable for DL380a G12
Overview
The HPE P74716-B21 is a Direct Attach Copper (DAC) cable specifically designed for the HPE ProLiant DL380a Gen12 server when integrating with NVIDIA components. This cable ensures a direct, high-speed connection between server components, eliminating the need for transceivers and reducing signal loss. It's engineered for environments requiring robust, reliable data transfer between the server and NVIDIA accelerators, such as high-performance computing or AI/ML workloads.
Compatibility
This cable is exclusively compatible with the HPE ProLiant DL380a Gen12 server configured with 4 EDSFF (Enterprise and Data Center SSD Form Factor) drive bays and intended for use with NVIDIA components. It is not compatible with other HPE server models or different drive form factors.
Installation Notes
Ensure the server is powered off and properly grounded before installation. Connect the cable firmly to the designated EDSFF ports on the server and the NVIDIA component. Verify secure seating of the connectors to prevent intermittent connections or data errors. The cable's direct attachment design simplifies installation by removing the need for separate optical transceivers and fiber optic cabling.
