Dell secondary PCIe 4.0 riser with one x16 low profile slot and cage for PowerEdge R450 and R650xs servers.
This is the secondary PCIe riser for Dell's PowerEdge R450 and R650xs 1U servers, supplied with its cage: a PCIe 4.0 riser board carrying one x16 low profile slot, which mounts in the second riser position at the rear of the chassis and adds an expansion slot that a server shipped without the riser does not have. It is refurbished and comes with the metal cage that locates it in the chassis. Buyers in Qatar fit this riser to an R450 or R650xs that needs a second card, typically a 25GbE network adapter, a Fibre Channel HBA or an NVMe adapter alongside the RAID or network card already fitted. ServerDove keeps it in Doha stock alongside its R650xs barebones.
RISER-DELL-R450-R650XS-X16Specification
A 1U server has no room for cards to stand upright, so risers turn the slot sideways; each riser position on the R450 and R650xs board is wired to a particular processor, and the secondary riser's lanes come from the second processor on some configurations, so the server may need two processors fitted for the slot to be active. PCIe 4.0 gives the slot double the bandwidth per lane of a 14th generation riser, which is what makes single slot 100GbE and PCIe 4.0 NVMe cards worthwhile. Low profile cards only fit; full height cards need a different riser.
What is included
- Dell secondary PCIe 4.0 riser board, one x16 low profile slot
- Riser cage for the R450 and R650xs chassis
Installation
Power the server down and unplug it, remove the lid and locate the empty secondary riser position at the rear. Fit the card into the riser first, secure its bracket to the cage, then lower the assembly into the chassis so the riser's connector engages the system board socket and its cage locks into place. Refit the lid, boot, and confirm in the BIOS or iDRAC that the new slot and card are recognised. Check the processor population rule for the slot if the card does not appear.

Why buy refurbished
Enterprise hardware, tested in Doha, at a fraction of the price of new
Every unit we sell has already proven itself in a data centre. We test it again, grade it, and back it with a warranty before it leaves our stock.
Tested before it ships
POST, burn-in, memory and power-supply checks on every unit. Anything that fails is repaired or pulled from stock, not sold.
Same performance, lower cost
A Xeon runs the same workloads whether it is new or two years old. Spend the difference on more CPUs, memory or storage.
In stock, not on order
New enterprise hardware can take weeks or months to arrive. Ours is on the shelf in Doha and delivered across Qatar within a day.
Warranty and local support
Every unit is covered. Installation, configuration and hardware support are handled by our own team in Qatar, not a call centre abroad.
