Intel 6238 2.1 GHz 22-Core CPU | Cisco UCS, Enterprise Server — UCS-CPU-I6238C=

Keep compute-intensive services moving with the Intel 6238 processor for Cisco UCS environments. With 22 cores, a 2.1 GHz base frequency, and 30.25 MB of cache, this CPU is built for workloads that benefit from sustained parallel execution and predictable server performance. The 140 W TDP reflects the power envelope expected in enterprise chassis where cooling, density, and reliability are planned in advance. For infrastructure teams, the appeal is straightforward: more work per socket, fewer bottlenecks in busy nodes, and a processor profile that fits established UCS deployment standards. It is a strong fit for virtualization clusters, database servers, and application consolidation projects where CPU capacity is the limiting factor. Compared with lower-core alternatives, the 6238 gives architects additional scheduling flexibility and better room for growth without changing the platform. When procurement needs a CPU that aligns with enterprise server design and long-term operational planning, this model offers a clear balance of core count, cache, and thermal profile.
