CYP1URISER1STD Intel Riser Card

High-Density 1U PCIe Expansion Accessory enabling Low-Profile I/O with the CYP1URISER1STD

The CYP1URISER1STD is an Intel 1U passive PCIe riser designed to add a low-profile PCIe adapter in space-constrained rack servers without altering the host compute platform. By relocating the PCIe interface to a right-hand side (RHS) slot position, CYP1URISER1STD enables clean mechanical integration while preserving airflow paths and serviceability in dense 1U chassis designs.

Architecturally, CYP1URISER1STD provides a direct, passive PCIe pathway from a single PCIe x16 host connector to a low-profile PCIe x16 expansion slot with x16 lanes, minimizing latency and avoiding additional switching or retimers that can complicate validation. This makes it well aligned for bandwidth-sensitive adapters such as Ethernet NICs, Fibre Channel HBAs, NVMe-oF targets, or RAID controllers, where deterministic PCIe behavior is required. Storage and network expansion can be introduced without consuming front-accessible drive bays or forcing cable routing compromises, and the low-profile limitation ensures predictable fitment for I/O cards rather than full-height accelerators.

Why Choose the CYP1URISER1STD?

The CYP1URISER1STD is a practical density-to-performance enabler for 1U platforms that need additional PCIe I/O without expanding to larger chassis. CYP1URISER1STD supports scalable deployment across standardised server builds by keeping PCIe connectivity straightforward, maintaining enterprise reliability through passive design, and simplifying maintenance by placing expansion in a consistent RHS position.

Intel designs accessories such as the CYP1URISER1STD to integrate tightly with validated server platforms, focusing on mechanical tolerance, signal integrity consistency, and predictable service procedures that align with modern data centre operational standards.

Key Applications:

• High-speed Ethernet NIC expansion
• Fibre Channel or SAS HBA integration
• RAID controller deployment
• Security and packet capture adapters
