Cisco UCS X210c M6 Barebone System – Dual-Processor Modular Server

The Cisco UCS X210c M6 Barebone System is a cornerstone of Cisco’s UCS X-Series, purpose-built to simplify data centers while delivering scalable performance for today’s unpredictable workloads. This dual-socket barebone forms the adaptable foundation for a wide range of deployments—from dense virtualization and cloud-native applications to traditional enterprise workloads—by providing a flexible platform that grows with your business. By consolidating server types and standardizing hardware across racks, the X210c M6 reduces operational complexity, accelerates provisioning, and unlocks faster time-to-value for new services. With Cisco’s trusted management ecosystem, this barebone integrates seamlessly into existing UCS fabric, enabling policy-driven operations, consistent firmware, and centralized control across compute, storage, and networking. Whether you’re building a private cloud, expanding a data-center core, or delivering scalable infrastructure for mission-critical apps, the X210c M6 is designed to maximize efficiency and topology versatility without sacrificing reliability.

  • Dual-processor capability enables significant multi-threaded performance for virtualization, database, and analytics workloads, delivering consistent throughput under mixed workloads and improved latency for critical applications.
  • Modular design in the UCS X-Series allows you to scale compute and I/O with confidence as application needs evolve—without overhauling your entire server fleet, reducing procurement cycles and risk.
  • Seamless integration with Cisco UCS Manager provides centralized lifecycle management, firmware consistency, automated provisioning, and policy-driven governance across compute, storage, and networking resources.
  • Optimized for modern data-center workloads, the X210c M6 supports flexible I/O options and is compatible with Cisco UCS adapters and mezzanine cards to tailor connectivity for virtualized and containerized environments.
  • Designed for efficiency: compact barebone form factor and energy-conscious engineering help maximize rack density, lower total cost of ownership, and support sustainable data-center operations.

The X210c M6 Barebone System embodies Cisco’s commitment to simplifying IT infrastructure while preparing you for tomorrow’s workloads. Its modular architecture, combined with the X-Series’ scalable design, enables organizations to deploy highly dense servers that can be upgraded incrementally as demand shifts. With a focus on unified management, you gain consistent visibility and control, ensuring smooth firmware rollouts, predictable performance, and robust security across your compute fabric. This approach reduces the number of server types you maintain, which translates into fewer spare parts, easier maintenance, and faster operational cycles. For teams that require rapid provisioning for seasonal demand, experiments with new architectures, or migration workflows, the X210c M6 delivers the kind of agility enterprises expect from a modern data-center backbone.

In addition to its performance and manageability, the X210c M6 Barebone System is designed to integrate into existing Cisco UCS ecosystems with minimal disruption. It supports a broad ecosystem of Cisco UCS components, including Fabric Interconnects, networking adapters, and storage options, enabling a cohesive, policy-driven infrastructure. This compatibility ensures that you can extend your current investment in Cisco video, security, and management capabilities while accelerating deployment of critical workloads. The result is a more predictable, scalable, and secure environment that aligns with contemporary IT strategies—whether you’re consolidating workloads, embracing virtualization, or moving toward a hybrid cloud model.
