IBM POWER11 S1122 & L1122

Compact & Affordable 2U Power11 Performance

The IBM Power S1122 & L1122 servers deliver an unprecedented level of performance and security in a compact 2U form factor.

For the first time, this model family offers a choice of processors: the powerful Dual-Chip Module (DCM) for maximum throughput, or the cost-effective entry Single-Chip Module (eSCM) for smaller workloads.

The Power S1122 is a versatile server for core business applications on AIX, IBM i, and Linux, making it ideal for small and medium enterprises – while the Power L1122 provides a Linux-only platform perfect for edge computing and remote office deployments.

KEY POINTS TO CONSIDER

Enterprise-class reliability, expansion and security in a 2U form factor.

These systems provide a low-cost entry point to the advanced features of the Power11 architecture. The new processors offer up to 60 cores, a 50% increase on the prior generation, in a power-efficient 2U chassis.

Enterprise-class reliability features are standard, including spare cores on all DCM processors and Active Memory Mirroring for higher uptime. The systems boast impressive expansion capabilities, with ten PCIe slots and up to 8 internal NVMe drives for high-speed storage. All data is protected by default with main memory encryption and new Quantum-safe security for boot and workload migration.
