1.1 Product Role

The R5300 G4X is a dual-processor rack server developed by ZTE based on the 3rd
® ®
Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processor (Ice Lake). Designed with high density,
modularity and refinement, the high-performance R5300 G4X can be applied in multiple
fields including government service, internet, energy, carrier service and finance.

1.2 Product Characteristics

High Performance

The high performance of the R5300 G4X is manifested in the following aspects:
 Two 3rd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors (Ice Lake) are supported,
each of which has up to 40 cores.
 Thirty-two DDR4 memory module slots are provided. The maximum rate of the mem-
ory modules can reach 3,200 MT/s.
 Two CPUs are interconnected through up to three UPI fast channels, with a maxi-
mum transmission rate of 11.2 GT/s.
 High-speed I/O and high-performance NVMe SSDs are supported.

High Scalability

The high scalability of the R5300 G4X is manifested in the following aspects:
 A maximum of forty–one 2.5-inch disk slots are provided to meet the requirement for
large-capacity storage.
 The number of PCIe slots can be increased to 14 to meet the requirement for flexible
expansion of networks and storage.
 A maximum of 28 NVMe SSDs are supported to address the problem of slow access
to disks in traditional configurations.

SJ-20211130164257-001 | 2022-04-29 (R1.0) 1

R5300 G4X Product Description

 A maximum of four high-performance GPUs are supported to provide excellent com-

puting power.

High Reliability

The high reliability of the R5300 G4X is manifested in the following aspects:
 Key parts such as hard disks, power supplies, and fans support hot swapping, im-
proving system reliability.
 Multiple data protection ways are provided. For example, the server supports RAID0,
RAID1, RAID5, RAID6, RAID10 and RAID50, and provides protection against a pow-
er supply failure.
 Intelligent heat dissipation design increases system reliability while effectively ex-
tending the lifetime of components.
 There are two power supply modules, supporting 1+1 redundancy.

Convenient Management and Easy Maintenance

The convenient management and easy maintenance of the R5300 G4X are manifested
in the following aspects:
 The server provides out-of-band centralized management to manage and monitor re-
sources such as CPUs, memory modules, hard disks, fans, power supplies, and net-
work.
 KVMs are supported. The administrator can direct the virtual media of the local con-
sole to a remote server to upgrade software for the remote system in a timely man-
ner, or install and maintain the operating system.
 The server provides web-based system management, including the viewing of log
files and the real-time monitoring of the sensor parameters of various modules.
 IPMI 2.0 interfaces are supported. The server provides out-of-band management
through IPMI interfaces including the RMCP and SNMP interfaces. Through these
two interfaces, the server can be integrated with a third-party management system
and provide a local management tool.

Environmental Require-
ments
Equipment Room Environment Requirements

 The seismic resistance, lightning protection, and load bearing of the equipment room
should meet the requirements for equipment room construction and long-term equip-
ment safety.
 The equipment room is provided with required anti-static measures and fire equip-
ment. Different voltage sockets must comply with national level-2 fire safety stan-
dards.
 Biological conditions: No plant, microorganism (mildew or fungus), or animal is al-
lowed in the equipment room.
 Corrosive gas pollutant: meets the gas corrosion G1 requirement defined by ANSI/
ISA-71.04-2013.
 The corrosion rate of the copper test piece should be as follows: The thickness
growth rate of the corrosion product should be lower than 300 Å/month.
 The corrosion rate of the silver test piece should be as follows: The thickness growth
rate of the corrosion product should be lower than 200 Å/month.
 Particulate pollutant: meets the requirements of ISO14644-1 Class 8. The equipment
room should be free of explosive, conductive, magnetic and corrosive dust.

Space Requirements

 The R5300 G4X must be installed in an access restricted area.

 A space of 800 mm is required for both the front and rear doors of the cabinet for the
heat dissipation and maintenance of the devices.

Cabinet Requirements

A standard (IEC) 297 x 19" general-purpose cabinet with a depth ≥1000 mm is required.

22 SJ-20211130164257-001 | 2022-04-29 (R1.0)

 6 Environmental Requirements

Floor Load Bearing Requirements

Considering different configurations and margins, the load bearing can be calculated
based on the server weight (about 35 kg per server) and the cabinet weight (according
to the actual configuration). For example, when one standard cabinet is configured with
2
12 R5300 G4X servers, the required load bearing should be greater than 600 kg/m .

Note

For detailed requirements on the operating environment of servers, refer to the ZTE
Server Environment Requirements.
