The Intel A2UL8RISER2 is a 2U riser card designed to expand PCI Express connectivity in compatible Intel server chassis, enabling additional low-profile expansion cards.
The A2UL8RISER2 is compatible with Intel 2U rack servers such as the Intel® Server System R240, R260, R360, and other 2U platforms that accept Intel-branded riser modules.
This riser card provides two PCIe Gen3 x8 low-profile slots, supporting standard half-height, half-length expansion cards.
No, the Intel A2UL8RISER2 support is limited to PCIe 3.0 bandwidth; PCIe Gen4 cards will operate at Gen3 speeds when installed.
The riser card measures 167 mm in length, 76 mm in height, and conforms to Intel’s standard 2U low-profile form factor.
No, the riser draws power directly from the motherboard connector and does not require additional power cables.
Power down the server, remove the chassis cover, align the riser’s gold fingers with the motherboard slot, press firmly until seated, secure with captive screws, and reassemble the chassis.
The card is engineered to maintain optimal airflow in Intel 2U chassis, ensuring no significant impact on cooling performance.
Keep the riser card and surrounding area free of dust, inspect connectors periodically, and ensure firmware is up to date for reliable operation.
Verify proper seating, confirm BIOS recognizes the riser, update the server firmware, and test with a known working PCIe card.
For optimal compatibility, update the server BIOS to the latest Intel recommended version before installing the riser card.
No, the A2UL8RISER2 supports low-profile expansion cards only; full-height cards are not supported in a 2U chassis.
The riser card is covered by Intel’s standard three-year limited warranty for server components.
Purchase from authorized Intel resellers or directly from Intel’s official online store to ensure authenticity and warranty support.
Only if the server motherboard provides multiple compatible riser connectors; refer to your server’s technical specifications.
Each slot on the riser is wired as PCIe Gen3 x8, delivering up to 7.88 GB/s of bidirectional bandwidth per slot.
