Cisco 16GB DDR5 SDRAM Memory Module

Upgrade your server or high-performance workstation with the Cisco 16GB DDR5 SDRAM Memory Module. Engineered for reliability, efficiency, and top-tier speed, this 16 GB module is designed to meet the demanding needs of modern data centers, virtualization hosts, and resource-intensive applications. Built around DDR5 technology, ECC, and Registered memory, it delivers improved data integrity, higher bandwidth, and better stability under heavy workloads. With a 4800 MHz data rate (DDR5-4800 / PC5-38400) and a 288-pin DIMM form factor, this module is tailored for Cisco-certified servers and enterprise-class machines that require robust memory performance and long-term reliability.

Whether you’re optimizing a virtualization cluster, accelerating database queries, or powering complex simulation software, the Cisco 16GB DDR5 module provides a foundation for consistent and scalable performance. DDR5 memory brings higher burst bandwidth, improved efficiency, and enhanced multitasking capabilities, making it ideal for environments where uptime and latency matter. The ECC feature detects and corrects single-bit errors on the fly, reducing the risk of data corruption, while the Registered design reduces electrical load on memory controllers, enabling higher capacity and more stable operation in multi-channel server configurations. This combination makes it a prudent choice for data center racks, HCI deployments, and mission-critical workloads where accuracy and reliability are non-negotiable.

Designed with compatibility and future-proofing in mind, the Cisco 16GB DDR5 module is built to work with Cisco servers and compatible enterprise motherboards that support DDR5 ECC Registered memory. The 288-pin DIMM format ensures broad compatibility with standard server architectures while preserving the performance and efficiency benefits of the newer DDR5 standard. The single-rank configuration balances density and performance, helping to optimize memory interleaving and channel utilization in multi-socket servers. If you’re upgrading existing memory or deploying a new Cisco-based infrastructure, this module makes an excellent choice for delivering more headroom for virtualization, AI-assisted workloads, and large-scale data analysis without sacrificing reliability.

From a performance perspective, DDR5 memory unlocks higher per-channel bandwidth and improved data prefetching, which translates to faster application start times, quicker data access, and smoother multitasking. The 4800 MHz speed enables quicker memory transfers, reducing waiting times for CPU-intensive tasks and enabling more responsive software behavior across a range of workloads. For IT teams, the module’s ECC and Registered features mean fewer memory-related errors, less downtime due to data corruption, and a more predictable performance envelope under heavy load. In short, it’s a memory upgrade designed to deliver tangible benefits for environments that demand both performance and resilience.

In practical terms, the Cisco 16GB DDR5 SDRAM Memory Module supports heavy software usage, virtualization stacks, databases, engineering tools, and media-rich applications. It enables dynamic memory scaling, allowing systems to accommodate larger datasets, more virtual machines, and more concurrent users without sacrificing performance. For administrators maintaining Cisco-based data centers, this module provides a dependable option for extending server life, increasing capacity, and achieving smoother operation during peak workloads. The industry-standard 288-pin DIMM form factor ensures straightforward installation in compatible servers, while the single-rank design contributes to predictable memory access patterns and efficient memory channel utilization. With this module, you gain both the speed of DDR5 and the robustness demanded by enterprise environments.

How to install Cisco 16GB DDR5 SDRAM Memory Module

  • Power down the system completely and unplug from power. Open the chassis or memory access panel to reach the DIMM slots.
  • Identify the correct memory bank configuration and locate the appropriate DIMM slots for a Cisco-certified server or workstation. Ensure you are handling the module by the edges and avoiding contact with any gold pins.
  • Orient the 288-pin module to align with the notch in the memory slot. Gently insert the module at a slight angle, then press down evenly with both thumbs until the latches click and the module is securely seated.
  • If installing multiple modules, follow the motherboard or server memory population guidelines to maximize bandwidth and performance (populate preferred channels first and maintain supported interleaving). Do not force modules into slots that resist proper seating.
  • Reconnect power, boot the system, and enter BIOS/UEFI to verify the memory is detected at the correct capacity and speed. Configure the memory profile for DDR5-4800 if required and save changes before continuing with normal operation.

Frequently asked questions

  • Q: What benefits does ECC provide? A: ECC (Error-Correcting Code) detects and corrects single-bit memory errors, reducing the risk of data corruption and system crashes, which is crucial for servers and other mission-critical environments.
  • Q: Why choose a registered memory module? A: Registered memory reduces electrical load on the memory controller, enabling higher memory capacity and improved stability in multi-channel server configurations, particularly under heavy I/O and virtualization workloads.
  • Q: Is 16 GB per module enough for modern workloads? A: For many servers and high-end workstations, 16 GB per module provides ample headroom for operating system processes, multiple virtual machines, databases, and large datasets. For heavier workloads, consider additional modules to increase total memory capacity and maintain performance.
  • Q: Can this DDR5 module be used in non-Cisco hardware? A: DDR5 ECC Registered modules are compatible with many enterprise-class systems that support DDR5 ECC Registered memory. Always check the motherboard or server memory compatibility list to ensure proper support and warranted performance.
  • Q: What is the expected performance impact of upgrading to DDR5-4800? A: Upgrading to DDR5-4800 provides higher bandwidth and faster data access, which translates to quicker application response, improved virtualization performance, and better multitasking for memory-intensive tasks, especially when paired with a modern CPU and fast storage.
