HPE DL38X Gen10 Plus x8/x16/x8 Secondary Riser Kit

The HPE P14587-B21 is a secondary riser kit designed for administrators who run HPE ProLiant DL380 or DL385 Gen10 Plus servers and need more room for expansion. It supplies one PCIe slot that handles x16 bandwidth and two additional slots that accept x8 cards, making it easy to add extra GPUs, high-speed network adapters, or dedicated storage controllers without replacing the server.

Installation is straightforward: the riser fits into the secondary riser bay of a Gen10 Plus chassis and secures with the same tool-less latches already built into the system. Measuring roughly 14.58 cm by 24.41 cm by 7.77 cm and weighing about 0.67 kg, the kit is light enough to handle during routine maintenance and compact enough to avoid crowding other components.

Because it is made specifically for the Gen10 Plus platform, firmware recognizes the new slots immediately, so you can start using your add-on cards right after installation. Whether you are expanding a virtualization cluster, adding GPU power for AI workloads, or increasing storage bandwidth, this riser kit lets your existing 2U server grow with your needs.
