Frequently asked questions
Common questions about the FusionServer 2288 V8
What is the FusionServer 2288 V8?
It is xFusion’s flagship 2U dual-socket general-purpose rack server, powered by two Intel Xeon 6 (Granite Rapids) processors and designed for virtualization, databases, cloud and software-defined infrastructure.
Why is it called 2288 V8 and not 2288H V8?
For this generation xFusion simplified the name to FusionServer 2288 V8. It is the direct successor to the 2288H V7 and belongs to the same mainstream 2U product line.
How much memory does it support?
It has 32 DDR5 RDIMM slots at up to 6400 MT/s, for a maximum of 12 TB when using the largest supported DIMMs. This makes it well suited to large in-memory databases and dense virtualization.
What storage configurations are available?
The platform supports up to 24 x 2.5-inch or 12 x 3.5-inch hot-swap SAS/SATA drives, with NVMe options and tri-mode backplanes so you can balance raw capacity against flash performance.
Does it support PCIe 5.0?
Yes. The 2288 V8 provides PCIe 5.0 riser slots, which double the bandwidth of PCIe 4.0 and support the fastest next-generation NICs, storage adapters and accelerators.
How does it compare with the 2288H V7?
The V8 moves to the Intel Xeon 6 architecture with up to 128 cores, DDR5 at 6400 MT/s and PCIe 5.0, while the V7 uses 4th/5th Generation Xeon Scalable processors. Choose V8 for new long-cycle deployments and V7 for mature, cost-optimized builds.
What workloads is it best for?
It is an excellent default for virtualization and VDI, SAP HANA and other in-memory databases, general databases, private/hybrid cloud, containers and software-defined storage or networking.
Does it offer remote management and redundancy?
Yes. It includes xFusion iBMC out-of-band management with IPMI and Redfish, plus redundant (2+2) hot-swap power supplies and hot-swap fans for high availability.
How can I buy it and what is the lead time?
Send us your CPU, memory, storage and networking requirements via our contact form. We will confirm an exact build, lead time and the 3-year warranty terms, then configure and test the server before shipment.
