2U rack server chassis with four front-facing node bays

Supermicro

Supermicro AS-2116GT-HNTF 2U 4-Node barebone server

SKU CH-2KZ3-8K20A MPN AS-2116GT-HNTF

A 2U barebone housing four independent nodes, each supporting EPYC 9004 or 9005 CPUs up to 400W, 16 DDR5-4400 DIMM slots, four front 2.5 NVMe or SATA drive bays and AIOM networking.

  • Four independent nodes fit in a single 2U chassis
  • Each node supports AMD EPYC 9005 and 9004 series processors up to 400W
  • Up to 16 DDR5 DIMMs per node running at 4400 MT/s
  • Four front hot-swap 2.5" NVMe or SATA drive bays per node
  • Single 2200W Titanium power supply shared across all nodes

Four-node 2U barebone

The Supermicro AS-2116GT-HNTF packs four independent server nodes into a single 2U chassis. Each node accepts a single AMD EPYC 9004 or 9005 series processor with a thermal design power of up to 400W. The platform targets compute-dense environments that need multiple isolated systems in minimal rack space.

Sustained 400W cooling per node

Air cooling handles continuous 400W processor loads across all four nodes without throttling. A single redundant 2200W Titanium-level power supply feeds the entire chassis. Each node supports up to 16 DDR5-4400 DIMMs for a maximum of 6TB memory capacity. Front hot-swap bays accommodate up to four 2.5-inch NVMe or SATA drives per node.

Verify processor, memory and drive choices

Confirm the exact EPYC 9004 or 9005 SKU you plan to install matches the SP5 socket and 400W limit. Validate DDR5-4400 modules against the qualified vendor list for 2DPC operation at full capacity. Ensure NVMe or SATA 2.5-inch drives fit the front hot-swap carrier. AIOM networking modules are ordered separately for each node.

Questions about this item

How much heat does each node generate when running a 400W EPYC processor continuously?

Each node supports a single-socket EPYC 9004 or 9005 series processor rated up to 400W with air cooling, so sustained full-load heat output per node will approach that 400W figure.

What storage drives do I need to populate the front bays?

The chassis provides up to four hot-swap 2.5" NVMe or SATA drive bays per node; you must supply the drives yourself as this is a barebone system.

Will my existing PCIe add-in cards fit in the nodes?

Each node includes an AIOM slot for flexible networking; other PCIe expansion depends on the specific riser configuration chosen for the 2116 platform.
