The Cisco UCS-CPU-X5687 Intel Xeon X5687 3.60 GHz Quad-Core Processor is a server CPU designed for compatible Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) platforms. Featuring four cores, eight threads, a 12 MB L3 cache, and a 3.60 GHz base clock speed, it delivers processing performance for enterprise applications and legacy server environments. The processor has a 130 W thermal design power (TDP) and supports DDR3 memory speeds up to 1333 MHz, subject to the server configuration.
Built on Intel's Xeon 5600 Series architecture, the Cisco UCS-CPU-X5687 supports Intel virtualization technologies, including VT-x and VT-d, for compatible computing environments. Its high clock frequency makes it suitable for workloads that benefit from strong per-core performance, while its quad-core architecture supports concurrent processing for business applications and virtualization workloads. Installation requires a compatible processor socket, heatsink, cooling system, and supported server firmware configuration.
The Cisco UCS-CPU-X5687 Xeon Processor is suitable for compatible Cisco UCS blade servers, enterprise application workloads, legacy virtualization environments, and replacement of existing X5687 processors. Before purchasing, verify server model compatibility, processor configuration requirements, and cooling specifications to ensure proper operation.
