Product Description
P48804-B21 HPE DL38X Gen11 2x16 Tertiary Riser Kit
Overview
P48804‑B21 is a tertiary PCIe expansion riser kit built for HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 2U rack servers. It adds two full‑bandwidth PCIe 5.0 x16 slots in the tertiary riser bay, routed to CPU 2, for high‑performance add‑in cards like GPUs, high‑speed NICs, and NVMe adapters. This kit is for dense, multi‑GPU/accelerator deployments requiring maximum PCIe expansion.
Core Features
- Dual PCIe 5.0 x16 Slots: Two full‑height, full‑length (FHFL) PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, delivering 32 GT/s per‑lane bandwidth
- Tertiary Riser Bay: Installed in the tertiary riser position, connected exclusively to CPU 2
- Tool‑Less Installation: Quick, rack‑friendly deployment without tools
- Airflow‑Optimized: Matches factory chassis design to preserve cooling efficiency
- Drive Cage Compatibility: Incompatible with 2LFF Tertiary Drive Cage — tertiary drive cage blocks this riser bay
Compatibility
- Server Platform: HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen11 2U Rack Server only
- Processor Requirement: Dual CPU (CPU 2) mandatory — single‑CPU systems cannot use this kit
- Drive Cage Restriction: Not usable with 2LFF Tertiary Drive Cage (blocks tertiary riser bay)
- Riser Stacking: Works with primary (P48803‑B21) and secondary (P51083‑B21 / P48802‑B21) risers for up to 8 total PCIe 5.0 slots

Key Deployment Notes
- Dual CPU Required: Tertiary riser connects only to CPU 2; single‑CPU systems are incompatible
- Drive Cage Conflict: Do not use with 2LFF Tertiary Drive Cage — riser bay is blocked
- Use Cases: Ideal for multi‑GPU AI/ML, high‑speed 100/200/400GbE networking, NVMe over Fabrics, and dense storage controller expansion
- Cooling: High‑power GPUs may require upgraded fan kits for optimal thermal performance
