Other Cisco UCS building blocks include new Cisco UCS VIC options, expanded Cisco UCS fabric interconnects,
and additional fabric extender options that expand throughput and management simplicity for both blade and rack
servers across bare-metal, virtualized, and cloud environments. Cisco UCS also provides investment protection.
For example, fabric extenders can be upgraded in the same Cisco UCS 5108 Server Chassis using the same
fabric interconnects. Fabric interconnects can be upgraded independently of fabric extenders and blade servers
within the chassis. The Cisco UCS 5108 Chassis high-performance midplane provides 8 blades with 1.2 terabits
(Tb) of available Ethernet throughput for future blade and I/O requirements. In addition, Cisco continues to
innovate in all these areas, helping ensure that newer, more powerful blade servers have matching I/O bandwidth
and computing power through continuous innovation across the Cisco UCS environment.
The Cisco UCS B200 M3 is also part of a large family of blade servers: the Cisco B-Series Blade Servers.
Designed to operate as part of Cisco UCS, the Cisco UCS B-Series servers employ many innovative Cisco
technologies to help customers handle the most challenging workloads. Cisco UCS B-Series servers operating in
a Cisco UCS management framework incorporate a standards-based unified network fabric, Cisco VM-FEX
virtualization support, Cisco UCS Manager software, Cisco fabric extender architecture, and Cisco Extended
Memory Technology. Again, Cisco is innovating across all these technologies. Together, these Cisco UCS
architectural advantages and Cisco's software advances, Cisco's continuous innovation, and unique blade server
and chassis designs combine to make Cisco UCS the first truly unified data center platform. In addition, Cisco
UCS can transform IT organizations through policy-based automation and deep integration with familiar systems
management and orchestration tools.

Features and Benefits
Benefit
● Decreases total cost of ownership (TCO) by reducing the number of NICs, HBAs, switches, and cables needed
● Enables the Cisco UCS 5108 chassis to eliminate in-chassis HBAs, NICs, and switches and reallocates the
saved power to denser, more powerful blade servers with more DIMM slots and better per-blade performance
compared to alternative offerings
● Helps reduce the number of manual steps required to deploy servers in the data center, improving server policy
consistency and coherency
● Allows servers and support infrastructure to be provisioned in minutes instead of days, shifting IT's focus from
maintenance to strategic initiatives
● Reduces configuration errors significantly as blades are added or repurposed
● Enables service profile movement from blade to blade, rack server to blade, blade to rack server, or blade to
blade in another chassis
● Requires no configuration; as with all Cisco UCS components, blades are automatically recognized and
configured by Cisco UCS Manager
● Through Cisco UCS Manager, provides extensive environmental monitoring for each blade
● Allows use of user thresholds to optimize environmental management of the blade
● Offers the Cisco UCS VIC 1240, a 4-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet, FCoE-capable adapter
● When used in combination with its port expander card, the Cisco UCS VIC 1240 can be expanded to eight ports
of 10 Gigabit Ethernet support
● Provides choice of converged network adapters (CNAs) and VIC adapters, providing flexibility, increased
performance, compatibility with industry standards, and network policy coherence for virtualized environments
● Provides dual secure digital high-capacity (SDHC) flash card sockets on the front left side of the server
Note: Cisco Flexibile Flash secure digital cards are currently orderable; however, they will be enabled only with future
firmware and software updates.
