IBM Power 11 Models

Every IBM Power 11 machine type, from the entry S1112 9242-21B through the flagship E1180 9080-HEU, profiled with structured processor, memory, storage, I/O, and software-tier data.

9242-21B (rack) / 9242-21T (tower)

IBM Power S1112 (9242-21B / 9242-21T)

The entry point into the IBM Power 11 generation: a single-socket, half-width 2U rack or tower system built for branch, edge, and smaller IBM i, AIX, and Linux deployments.

10 cores (1 socket) 512 GB DDR5 DDIMM (256 GB usable for AIX/Linux/VIOS, 64 GB usable for IBM i P05)
9824-22A

IBM Power S1122 (9824-22A)

A dense, dual-socket 2U scale-out server offering up to 60 Power 11 cores and 4 TB of DDR5 memory, IBM's mainstream choice for growing IBM i, AIX, and Linux environments.

60 cores (dual-socket) 64 GB to 4 TB DDR5 across 32 DDIMM slots
9824-42A

IBM Power S1124 (9824-42A)

A quad-socket-capable, high-performance 4U scale-out server offering up to 60 Power 11 cores and 8 TB of DDR5 memory, built for enterprises and regional data centers.

60 cores (dual-socket configuration shown; higher-density builds available) 64 GB to 8 TB DDR5 across 32 DDIMM slots
9856-22H

IBM Power L1122 (9856-22H)

The Linux-optimized sibling of the S1122: a dual-socket 2U server with the same hardware ceiling but licensed for Linux-first environments, with limited AIX/IBM i core use.

60 cores (dual-socket) 64 GB to 4 TB DDR5 across 32 DDIMM slots
9856-42H

IBM Power L1124 (9856-42H)

The Linux-optimized sibling of the S1124: a high-throughput scale-out server for open-source databases and Red Hat OpenShift, with the same DCM processor ceiling as the S1124.

60 cores (DCM configuration) 64 GB to 8 TB DDR5 across 32 DDIMM slots
9043-MRU

IBM Power E1150 (9043-MRU)

A 4U enterprise scale-up server built for memory- and data-intensive AIX and Linux workloads, offering up to 120 Power 11 cores and 16 TB of DDR5 memory per node. Does not support IBM i.

120 cores (4 sockets) 16 TB DDR5 per node (256 GB-16 TB range, 32 DDIMM slots)
9080-HEU

IBM Power E1180 (9080-HEU)

IBM's flagship Power 11 system: a modular multi-node enterprise server scaling up to 256 cores and 64 TB of DDR5 memory across up to four system nodes, built for the largest mission-critical AI-era workloads.

Up to 256 cores in a 4-node (16-socket) maximum configuration Up to 64 TB DDR5 total across up to 4 system nodes (64 DDIMM slots per node)
