Intel CD8069504449401 Xeon Gold 6248R 24-Core Processor

Name: Intel CD8069504449401 Xeon Gold 6248R 24-Core Processor
Brand: Intel
SKU: CD8069504449401

Overview

The Intel Xeon Gold 6248R is a 2nd Generation Intel Xeon Scalable processor targeting data center, multi-cloud, and high-performance computing environments. With 24 physical cores running at a 3.0 GHz base clock and boosting up to 4.0 GHz, it provides a strong balance of throughput and single-thread responsiveness. The 48-thread capability via Hyper-Threading makes it particularly well-suited for virtualized workloads, large database operations, and applications that can scale across many concurrent threads. Its 35.75 MB of shared L3 cache helps keep frequently accessed data close to the cores, minimizing latency during intensive computation.

Built on Intel's 14nm process and designed for the LGA 3647 socket, the 6248R fits into existing Xeon Scalable infrastructure, supporting multi-socket server configurations for organizations that need additional capacity. The 205W thermal envelope demands proper server-grade cooling, but in return delivers consistent performance under sustained workloads. Features like Intel Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (AVX-512), hardware-enhanced security capabilities, and broad memory support make this processor a capable foundation for enterprise storage, networking, and compute platforms.
