Kit riser Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 2U scheda riser PCIe Gen4 per server 2U (MPN 4XH7A82892)

The Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 2U PCIe Gen4 riser kit is a dedicated expansion component engineered for 2U server chassis. Designed to fit Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 2U systems, this riser card delivers PCIe Gen4 lanes to accommodate additional full-height or half-height PCIe cards, enabling increased I/O density in a compact rack unit. The hardware is intended for enterprise and datacenter environments where modular expansion, compatibility with the server chassis and reliable signal integrity are required.

Advantages

The riser kit supplies PCIe Gen4 connectivity that increases bandwidth compared with prior generation risers, supporting higher throughput for network adapters, storage controllers and accelerator cards. Its form factor is optimized for 2U chassis layouts to allow flexible placement of expansion cards without modifying the server mainboard. Built to cooperate with the server cooling and power architecture, the riser maintains mechanical and electrical compatibility with Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 2U systems.

Suitable for

• Adding network interface cards (10/25/40/100 GbE) to a 2U Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 server
• Installing NVMe or SAS storage controller cards to expand storage connectivity
• Deploying accelerator or GPU cards compatible with a 2U riser layout for compute offload
• Data center server configurations that require additional PCIe Gen4 lanes without replacing the chassis

Key specifications

• Interface: PCI Express Gen4 lanes for high-speed peripheral connectivity
• Form factor: riser card designed for installation in 2U rack-mount server chassis
• Compatibility: intended to match mechanical and electrical requirements of Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 2U servers
• Supports full-height and half-height PCIe expansion cards depending on chassis slot layout
• Designed to preserve server cooling paths and power distribution when installed

How to use

Install the riser kit into the designated riser slot inside a compatible 2U Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 chassis following the server service manual instructions. Power down the server and unplug power sources before beginning. Secure the riser to the chassis with the provided fasteners, seat any PCIe cards into the riser slots, and ensure connectors are fully engaged. After installation, power on the server and verify device recognition in firmware and the operating system, and update any required firmware or drivers for installed expansion cards.

Recommendations

Use the riser kit only in supported 2U Lenovo ThinkSystem V3 configurations. Confirm air flow and power budgets for newly added cards and validate firmware compatibility. For critical deployments, test the complete server configuration in a lab environment before production rollout.
