In today’s ever-growing data centers, space is always 

at a premium. To gain the most value from the space 
you have, you need scalable, density-optimized 
servers that allow you to pack more processing power 
into your existing footprint. That’s the HP ProLiant SL2500

 

scalable system. This density-optimized workhorse 
is an ideal solution for data centers focused on 
Web services, hosting, mainstream computing, and 
high-performance computing.

Make better use of your limited floor space

With up to four independent hot-pluggable servers in a standard 2U chassis, the 
HP ProLiant SL2500 scalable system offers a very dense solution that is ideal for 
your space-constrained data center. Each server node harnesses the performance 
of dual Intel

 Xeon

 E5-2600 v2 processors in a highly efficient package that shares 

power and cooling and fits in industry-standard racks with standard rear cabling.

The ProLiant SL2500 scalable system provides all the features you would expect in 
an enterprise server with the added benefit of optimization for efficiency, density, 
and flexible configurations. With twice the density of standard rack servers, the 
ProLiant SL2500 helps you make better use of your data center floor space, increase 
performance, and reduce energy consumption.

Key features and benefits

Increase server and rack density

• 

Place up to four independent, hot-swappable server nodes in one chassis.

• 

Increase return on investment (ROI) on your existing investments by integrating the 
latest processor technologies into your current rack-mount infrastructure.

• 

Double the compute density per “U” vs. standalone rack-mount servers with up 
to 80 server nodes in a standard 42U rack.

• 

Choose from 12 large-form-factor (LFF) or 24 small-form-factor (SFF) drive options 
to support demanding scale-out workloads.
