Refurbished HPE Xeon E5-2680 v2 10-core processor upgrade in green PCB with silver heat spreader

HPE Refurbished

HPE 709487-L21 Xeon E5-2680 v2 10-core 2.80 GHz processor upgrade

SKU CH-9BY2-YGVY9 MPN 709487-L21

Refurbished Xeon E5-2680 v2 10-core processor running at 2.80 GHz for server upgrades

  • 10-core Xeon E5-2680 v2 delivers high multi-thread throughput
  • 80 GHz base frequency provides consistent compute performance
  • 21 MB cache reduces memory latency for demanding workloads
  • E5-2600 v2 architecture supports advanced virtualisation features
  • HPE 709487-L21 validated for ProLiant server integration

Processor upgrade for HPE servers

This refurbished processor upgrade adds a ten-core Xeon E5-2680 v2 running at 2.80 GHz to compatible HPE systems. It is supplied as a factory integration option for supported server platforms.

Suits capacity upgrades on existing E5-2600 v2

Administrators expanding compute density on qualified HPE servers can use this module. Buyers needing a different core count, clock speed or a newer processor generation cannot use this part.

Ten cores at 2.80 GHz

The decisive specification is the ten-core configuration operating at 2.80 GHz. Match this exact core count and frequency against the server’s supported processor list before ordering.

Questions about this item

Does the 709487-L21 use a standard Xeon socket interface, and what bus speed does it cap at?

The processor uses the Intel Xeon E5-2600 v2 platform interface; the 2.80 GHz base frequency sets the practical operating ceiling for this 10-core model.

What physical clearance does the 709487-L21 need inside the server chassis?

This FIO processor upgrade is designed for HPE server sockets; it requires the matching HPE heatsink retention frame and sufficient vertical clearance for the factory heatsink assembly.

How is the 709487-L21 installed, and which step is most often missed?

Install the processor into the LGA socket, apply thermal compound, then secure the HPE-specific retention bracket before attaching the heatsink; the bracket step is frequently skipped.
