Intel Xeon L5520 2.26GHz 60W switch module

SKU CH-MH8G-X5XVW

A quad-core Xeon processor running at 2.26 GHz with 8 MB L3 cache and 5.86 GT/s QPI for LGA 1366 servers

  • Quad-core design handles parallel workloads efficiently
  • 26 GHz base clock delivers steady compute throughput
  • 60 W TDP keeps thermal load manageable
  • LGA 1366 socket fits compatible server boards

Intel Xeon L5520 quad-core processor

The Intel Xeon L5520 is a quad-core processor running at 2.26 GHz with an 8 MB L3 cache. It uses a 5.86 GT/s QPI link and fits the LGA 1366 socket. The 45 nm design has a 60 W thermal envelope and is sold as a processor only.

Low-power server builds needing LGA 1366

This CPU suits systems built around the LGA 1366 platform that require a 60 W quad-core part. It is not for buyers who need a different socket, a higher core count or a lower thermal design power.

Questions about this item

What does the 2.26 GHz clock speed mean for server performance?

The 2.26 GHz base frequency sets the execution pace for each of the four cores, so multi-threaded server workloads scale across all cores at that rate.

How does the 5.86 GT/s QPI link affect system bandwidth?

The 5.86 GT/s QuickPath Interconnect caps data transfer between the processor and chipset, limiting peak bandwidth to that signalling rate in a dual-socket board.
