Penguin Solutions Launches CXL Memory Expansion Card Supporting 8-Channel DDR4
IT Home, November 13 news: Penguin Solutions announced yesterday local time the launch of the CXL memory expansion card CXL-8F2W-D4. It uses the PCIe AIC form factor and conforms to the full-height (FH) half-length (HL) form factor.

The CXL-8F2W-D4 is based on the Marvell StructeraX CXL controller, communicates with the host via PCIe Gen5 / CXL Gen2 (×16), and provides 8 DDR4 RDIMM memory channels at 1DPC.
This design allows enterprises to reuse existing DDR4 memory modules, providing additional memory capacity for modern DDR5-based server systems. To ensure hardware reliability, Penguin Solutions provides a strict memory screening and certification process for this expansion card and other CXL devices.
