PCIe Riser Board for DL380e Gen8

This HPE riser board installs into the ProLiant DL380e Generation 8 server chassis to provide additional PCIe expansion slots. It is intended for administrators adding network adapters or other controllers to that specific platform.

Installation and slot availability

The card plugs directly into the server's riser connector and requires no external power cables. Because the design omits SAS support, it frees the slot for non-storage add-in cards while leaving onboard or separate storage controllers unaffected.

Suitable for DL380e Gen8 expansion

Buyers upgrading an HPE ProLiant DL380e Gen8 who need extra PCIe lanes for networking or compute cards will use this part. It is not for servers outside the DL380e Gen8 line, nor for builds that require the riser to carry SAS connectivity.

Questions about this item

Does the PCIe riser board 684897-001 include SAS connectors for drive backplanes?

No, the riser board is supplied without SAS support, so internal drive backplanes requiring SAS must use a separate controller or a different riser option.

How much additional heat or power does the riser card add when the ProLiant DL380e Gen8 runs continuously?

The riser card is a passive PCB with no active components, so it adds negligible heat and draws no measurable power beyond trace losses.

Which server chassis and generation must already be installed for the 684897-001 riser to fit and function?

The card is designed exclusively for the HP ProLiant DL380e Generation 8 server chassis.
