GPU adapters and co-processors
The server supports the co-processors and graphics processing units (GPUs) that are listed in the
following table. Each is installed in a Full-length I/O Book. No other adapter can be installed in the
Full-length I/O Book. The Full-length I/O Book includes the necessary auxiliary power cables.
Note
: These adapters are not available through CTO and cannot be shipped installed in the server
because they are installed in the Full-length I/O Book, which extends beyond the rear of the chassis (see
Figure 12). These adapters must be shipped separately from the server. Order the adapter and
Full-length I/O Book as separate options.
