HPE ProLiant DL380/DL560 Gen11 High Performance 2U Heat Sink Kit

- Model:P48818-B21

Product Description The HPE ProLiant DL380/DL560 Gen11 High Performance 2U Heat Sink Kit is an HPE processor-cooling option designed for 2-processor (2P) air-cooled configurations of the DL380 Gen11 and DL560 Gen11 servers. Its purpose is to provide enhanced thermal management for higher-performance processors, helping maintain stable operating temperatures under demanding workloads. Product Features The kit is identified by HPE part number P48818-B21 and is specifically classified by HPE as a Processor Enablement Option . It is intended for systems where the standard cooling configuration is insufficient for the selected processor configuration, particularly higher-power dual-processor setups. The high-performance heatsink works together with the server’s airflow and cooling fans to efficiently transfer heat away from the processors. This is particularly important when the server is running processor-intensive workloads such as virtualization, databases, analytics, high-performance computing, and large enterprise applications . For the DL380 Gen11 , HPE’s QuickSpecs distinguish this kit from the Max Performance Heat Sink Kit (P48817-B21) and the standard cooling options. The P48818-B21 is specified for 2P air-cooling configurations , while different heatsink options are used for four-processor DL560 configurations. The kit has listed dimensions of approximately 25.3 × 28.8 × 13.5 cm and weighs about 0.78 kg .
