Dedicated TPM for Dell 13G PowerEdge

This Trusted Platform Module with part numbers 7HGKK, M48YR and R9X21 is a dedicated hardware security component built for Dell PowerEdge 13th Generation rack servers. It installs directly into the onboard TPM slot on compatible motherboards. The module enables hardware-rooted cybersecurity protection for server infrastructure.

Suits admins securing 13G rack servers

It suits IT administrators maintaining PowerEdge R430, R530, R630 or R730 servers who need to enable Secure Boot, BitLocker drive encryption or platform authentication. It is not for systems lacking a dedicated TPM header or for servers outside the specified 13G model range. Buyers needing firmware TPM emulation or software-based encryption alternatives should look elsewhere.

Replaces failed or missing TPM chips

The module serves as an ideal replacement for failed or missing TPM chips during data center server maintenance. Once installed and enabled in BIOS, it allows immediate activation of hardware-based security functions. No additional cables, brackets or software licences are bundled with the component.
