X11 Is the Supermicro Platform Generation
Supermicro uses X11 to identify a motherboard and server-platform generation. Customers should not interpret X11 as Intel eleventh-generation processors or as a direct equivalent to another manufacturer’s generation naming.
Many dual-socket X11 systems use the Intel C621 platform and support first- and second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, DDR4 ECC memory, PCIe 3.0, SATA storage, IPMI management, and model-dependent NVMe connectivity. Exact capabilities must be confirmed for each server.
