Supermicro MicroBlade MBI-6128R-T2X

Supermicro MicroBlade MBI-6128R-T2X is a high-density blade server node engineered for scalable, space-efficient compute infrastructures. It is designed to integrate into Supermicro MicroBlade chassis and provide reliable performance for virtualisation, cloud and cluster environments.

Key technical characteristics

• CPU sockets: Dual-socket configuration, enabling deployment of two compatible server processors for higher core density and improved parallel performance.
• Memory architecture: 8 RAM slots supporting up to 256GB VLP ECC RDIMM, designed for increased memory bandwidth and capacity in a compact form factor.
• Memory type: VLP (Very Low Profile) ECC RDIMM modules for better airflow in dense blade environments and enhanced reliability through error-correcting code.
• Network connectivity: Integrated 2x 10GbE network interfaces via AOC-XEH-I2M, providing high-throughput connectivity for data-intensive and virtualised workloads.

Benefits in high-density deployments

• Compute density: Dual-socket design and support for high-capacity ECC memory allow consolidation of multiple workloads onto fewer physical nodes in a MicroBlade chassis.
• Reliability: ECC RDIMM memory reduces the risk of data corruption, improving system stability for critical applications and continuous operation.
• Network performance: 10GbE interfaces provide sufficient bandwidth for demanding applications, virtual machine traffic and storage access in modern data centers.
• Optimised airflow: Use of VLP modules helps maintain efficient cooling in dense blade configurations, supporting consistent performance under load.

Typical use cases

• Virtualisation clusters and private cloud infrastructure.
• High-density hosting and container platforms.
• Compute nodes in scale-out architectures.

Supermicro MicroBlade MBI-6128R-T2X is suited for organisations seeking a compact, modular server platform with dual-socket processing, ECC memory support and 10GbE connectivity, without compromising on serviceability or scalability within a MicroBlade ecosystem.
