Dell PCIe Riser Card — Dell Riser 2C 1×16 Low Profile PCIe Expansion Card
The Dell PCIe riser card (Riser 2C) provides a single x16 PCIe low profile slot for add-in card expansion in compatible Dell PowerEdge servers. It enables South African IT administrators to add network interface cards, HBAs, low profile GPU accelerators, or other PCIe peripherals to servers using this riser configuration.
PCIe Expansion for Server Flexibility
The Dell PCIe riser card positions an x16 PCIe slot in the Riser 2 location of compatible PowerEdge chassis. The x16 interface supports full-bandwidth PCIe 4.0 communication. This provides the throughput needed for high-speed add-in cards such as 25GbE or 100GbE network adapters and NVMe host bus adapters. The low profile slot accepts both low profile and half-height cards depending on the physical card design. This makes it compatible with a wide range of server-grade expansion cards. Furthermore, the Dell PCIe riser card is used across many South African enterprise server deployments without modification.
Critical for Specific Server Configurations
Dell PowerEdge servers use a modular riser architecture. Specific riser cards must be ordered to enable PCIe expansion in different chassis locations. The Riser 2C configuration is specific to certain PowerEdge server models. Ensuring the correct riser is ordered is essential for achieving the desired PCIe expansion layout. Sourcing genuine Dell components guarantees mechanical and electrical compatibility in all applicable server models.
