NVIDIA BlueField-2 DPU for Dell PowerEdge

This NVIDIA BlueField-2 data processing unit adds two 25Gb SFP56 ports to compatible Dell PowerEdge servers. It installs in a PCIe 4.0 x8 full-height half-length slot and offloads infrastructure tasks from the host CPU. The card targets administrators who need hardware-accelerated networking, storage and security services on supported platforms.

Upgrade from basic NICs when offload matters

Replacing a standard network adapter with this DPU moves packet processing, encryption and telemetry onto the BlueField-2 SoC. The jump is worth it when workloads such as virtualised networking, software-defined storage or zero-trust security saturate the host processor. Servers without a free PCIe 4.0 x8 slot cannot use the card.

Check Dell PowerEdge model and slot availability

Verify the server is one of the listed PowerEdge models: R650, R6525, R660, R6615, R6625, R750, R7515, R7525, R760, R760xa, R7615 or R7625. Confirm an open full-height half-length PCIe 4.0 x8 slot exists and that SFP56 transceivers or direct-attach cables are available for 25Gb connectivity.

Questions about this item

What PCIe slot size does the BlueField-2 DPU need?

The card uses a PCIe 4.0 x8 interface and requires a full-height half-length slot in a compatible PowerEdge server.

How is the DPU installed in a Dell PowerEdge server?

Insert the card into an available PCIe 4.0 x8 slot, then connect 25Gb SFP56 transceivers and cables to the two network ports.

What firmware updates will the DPU need over time?

NVIDIA releases BlueField-2 firmware updates that can be applied through the Dell iDRAC interface or the DOCA software framework.
