HPE HU4B4A5013Q DL380 G12 Storage Server FOR DP Supp

HPE HU4B4A5013Q DL380 Gen12 Storage Server for Data Protection Supplement

Overview

The HPE HU4B4A5013Q is a purpose-configured DL380 Gen12 platform designated for data protection supplemental deployments. The DL380 Gen12 sits at the center of HPE's HPE server and compute catalog, and this SKU targets environments expanding an existing data protection architecture — adding capacity or redundancy to an established backup or recovery infrastructure rather than standing up a net-new system. If you are sourcing this as part of a network video recorder or surveillance storage expansion, verify the configuration details with your HPE solution architect before ordering, as supplement SKUs carry configuration-specific entitlements.

The HU4B4A5013Q is a US-origin product (Country of Origin: US), consistent with HPE's domestic-sourcing commitments for federal and regulated-industry accounts. UNSPSC classification 81111812 applies to this SKU per distributor structured data.

Key Features

• DL380 Gen12 Platform: The ProLiant DL380 is HPE's dual-socket 2U workhorse — a platform with broad ecosystem support across storage controllers, drive bays, and network adapters. Gen12 extends the platform with updated memory and PCIe architecture relevant to high-throughput storage workloads.
• Data Protection Supplement Designation: This SKU is scoped as a supplement to an existing data protection deployment. That means it is intended to extend — not replace — an active HPE DP environment. Procuring it outside that context may result in licensing or support mismatches; confirm your base SKU entitlements before ordering.
• US Country of Origin: Domestic origin supports TAA compliance requirements common in federal, DoD, and state/local government procurement. Verify TAA status against your specific contract vehicle if this is a compliance-driven purchase.

Integration and Compatibility

As a ProLiant DL380 Gen12 server variant, this platform integrates with HPE's iLO management stack, HPE OneView, and HPE InfoSight/GreenLake observability tooling where licensed. For surveillance or physical security storage deployments, compatibility with leading video management platforms depends on the specific storage and network configuration provisioned — consult the HPE-validated configuration guide for your VMS vendor before finalizing the build. HPE's DP supplement SKUs are typically paired with HPE StoreOnce or Backup Recovery Manager Central (BRMC) in the base deployment.
