Supermicro RSC-R2U-EHT

Supermicro RSC-R2U-EHT is a 2U riser card engineered for Supermicro rackmount server platforms. It allows horizontal installation of PCIe add-on cards in low-profile 2U chassis, helping to maximize expansion capabilities without increasing system height.

The riser card is designed for use in dense data center and enterprise environments where mechanical compatibility, signal integrity and reliable operation under continuous load are critical. By relocating PCIe slots horizontally, it supports efficient use of internal chassis space and helps maintain optimized airflow paths.

• Form factor optimization – enables horizontal PCIe expansion in 2U rackmount enclosures, supporting compact server layouts.
• Server-grade design – developed specifically for Supermicro platforms to ensure mechanical fit and stable operation in supported chassis.
• Efficient space usage – helps integrate additional controllers or accelerator cards in environments with strict height and depth constraints.
• Improved airflow management – horizontal card placement can contribute to more predictable airflow channels compared to improvised mounting solutions.
• Use cases – suitable for servers handling virtualization, storage, networking or security workloads where additional PCIe cards are required.

As this model is a dedicated riser for specific Supermicro systems, it should be selected according to chassis and motherboard compatibility lists provided by the manufacturer. When planning an installation, verify supported server models, PCIe generation, slot layout and mechanical clearances to ensure proper integration.
