• GPUs installed in the PCIe x16 slots 1 and 3, use the 879289-001 power cable (1000 mm, 39.37 in).
• GPUs installed in the PCIe slots 5 and 7, use the 876503-001 power cable (180 mm, 7.09 in).
For more information on how these cables are routed, see
Thermal and power requirements for accelerator options
• The fan cage option is required to meet the system thermal requirement when an accelerator is installed. For fan cage
information, see
• The system operating temperature requirement will vary depending on the accelerator model, the drive configuration,
and the thermal configuration setting enabled in BIOS. For more information, see the product QuickSpecs on the
Hewlett Packard Enterprise website.
To select a thermal configuration setting, from the
System Utilities screen, select System Configuration > BIOS/
Platform Configuration (RBSU) > Advanced Options > Fan and Thermal Options > Thermal Configuration.
• For high-power accelerator options, Hewlett Packard Enterprise recommends using the HPE 1600 W Flex Slot
Platinum Hot-plug Low Halogen Power Supply. Use the HPE Power Advisor tool to estimate the power consumption
requirement based on specific system configuration. For more information on this tool, see the
IMPORTANT: Workloads for high performance double-width accelerators with passive cooling can cause the fans
to operate at high speeds to maintain optimum system cooling. This high-speed fan operation leads to a sound
pressure level of between 75 dB(A) to 80 dB(A). Hewlett Packard Enterprise does not recommend operating the
server under this passive cooling condition in or near a site where there is a reasonable expectation for a quiet
environment.
Installing an expansion board
Prerequisites
Before you perform this procedure:
• Check if the expansion board option requires the fan cage, see
Expansion board thermal requirement.
• When installing an accelerator option, review the
Accelerator installation information.
• Make sure that you have the following items available:
◦
Expansion board option kit
◦
Internal and external cabling required by the expansion board
◦
T-15 Torx screwdriver
Procedure
1.
