Pasywny Riser Supermicro 2U RHS 1xPCI-E 3.0 x16 1xPCI-E 3.0 x8 R2UT-E8E16R

The Supermicro R2UT-E8E16R is a passive riser card engineered for 2U Twin server platforms that require reliable PCI Express expansion on the right-hand side (RHS). It provides one PCI-E 3.0 x16 and one PCI-E 3.0 x8 slot, enabling high-bandwidth connectivity for add-in cards in dense rack environments.

This riser is tailored for compatible 2U Twin chassis and uses a PCI-E x16 input interface to distribute lanes to the output slots. The design supports GPU installation, making it suitable for compute, acceleration or visualization workloads where horizontal card mounting is required. Automatic detection support helps ensure proper recognition of installed expansion cards by the platform firmware and operating system.

• Form factor: 2U Twin server platforms, RHS slot position
• Input interface: PCI-E 3.0 x16
• Output interfaces: 1x PCI-E 3.0 x16, 1x PCI-E 3.0 x8
• GPU support: Yes, suitable for supported GPU add-in cards
• NVMe support: Not supported
• M.2 support: Not supported
• Thermal sensor: Not available
• Automatic detection: Yes

By using a passive riser, the signal path between motherboard and expansion cards remains straightforward, which is beneficial in environments where predictable behavior and low complexity are required. The absence of NVMe, M.2 and integrated thermal sensing simplifies deployment in configurations focused primarily on PCI-E GPU or other standard add-in cards.

This riser is intended for use only in compatible Supermicro 2U Twin chassis. For exact chassis compatibility, supported GPU models and lane allocation details, consult the official Supermicro documentation for the R2UT-E8E16R and your specific server platform.
