Cisco UCS C220 M5 SFF 10 NVMe | Enterprise Server, Rack Mount — CON-L1NBD-C220M5SN

Build the server around your workload, not the other way around. Cisco UCS C220 M5 SFF 10 NVMe provides a compact rack platform designed for high-density storage and deployment flexibility, with no CPU, memory, drives, PCIe cards, or power supply included. That makes it a practical fit for infrastructure teams that want to align hardware spend with exact application requirements. The 10 NVMe small-form-factor layout supports fast local storage configurations for environments where I/O matters more than bulk capacity. In a UCS environment, that flexibility helps teams standardize chassis selection while choosing the right processors, memory, and expansion profile for each deployment. It is a strong fit for virtualization hosts, database nodes, and application servers that need predictable rack efficiency and room to scale. For procurement teams, this configuration reduces waste at the point of purchase and keeps the server aligned to internal build standards. For architects, it offers a known Cisco platform that can be completed with the exact components required for the workload. The result is a cleaner bill of materials, tighter control over lifecycle planning, and a server foundation that can be matched precisely to performance targets. Ideal For Deploy as a build-to-order virtualization host in a standardized rack environment Configure as a database server with local NVMe storage for low-latency access Use as an application server foundation where CPU and memory are selected per workload Install in enterprise data centers that require Cisco UCS platform consistency Why This Product 1 Includes 10 SFF NVMe support for dense local storage 2 JTFps without CPU, memory, drives, PCIe, or PSU for custom builds 3 Fits Cisco UCS standardization strategies in enterprise racks 4 Better for tailored deployments than fixed-configuration servers
