Lenovo WA5480 G3

Lenovo WenTian WA5480 G3 is a 4U dual-socket AI server supporting 4th or 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors. PCIe GPU options include eight-GPU switched, eight-GPU direct and four-GPU direct configurations. Validate GPU models, expansion, storage, networking and cooling against the selected module and complete bill of materials.

Up to two 4th or 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors; validate cooling requirements
32 DDR5 DIMM slots; capacity and speed depend on CPU and memory population
PCIe GPU: eight-GPU switched, eight-GPU direct or four-GPU direct; selected modules expand to ten double-width cards
24 2.5-inch or 12 3.5-inch bays; NVMe quantity depends on backplanes and topology
OCP 3.0 and PCIe networking; adapter and link speed require compatibility validation
4U rack; four hot-swap CRPS power supplies; redundancy and cooling depend on configuration

Published model specifications describe available options, not the delivered configuration.

Specifications & selection notes

Processor

Model	4th or 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable (Sapphire Rapids / Emerald Rapids); validate the supported configuration
Slot count	2
Maximum core count	Up to 64 cores per processor across the series; CPU and configuration dependent
Maximum frequency / TDP	Frequency and TDP depend on the CPU part number and cooling configuration; maxima do not apply to every configuration

Memory

Type	DDR5 RDIMM
Slot count	32 DIMM（Per socket 16 Units · 8 Channels × 2 DIMM）
Maximum capacity	Validate against the CPU, DIMM part numbers and configuration guide; slot count alone does not establish a supported capacity
Data rate	Depends on the CPU, DIMMs and DIMMs per channel; confirm the applicable configuration guide

Storage

Front drive bays	24 2.5-inch or 12 3.5-inch bays; this does not mean all 24 bays support NVMe
Interface type	SAS/SATA/NVMe depend on the backplane; the brochure lists up to 12 NVMe drives for the 24-SFF arrangement and up to four for the 12-LFF arrangement
RAID	Onboard SATA software RAID 0/1/5/10; optional PCIe RAID/HBA, with levels determined by the controller
M.2	Optional internal M.2 SATA/NVMe boot devices; confirm quantity, adapter and RAID capability for the configuration

Expansion and networking

PCIe Slots	PCIe 5.0 × Multi-socket，Supports High-speed interconnect
GPU Topology	PCIe expansion: eight-GPU switched, eight-GPU direct or four-GPU direct; selected modules support up to ten double-width GPUs, not a blanket SXM full-interconnect configuration
Networking	OCP 3.0 and PCIe network-adapter options; validate speed, protocol and slot allocation against the supported configuration
Management	One 1GbE RJ45 management port; Lenovo BMC and associated management software

Power supply

Power supply rating	Brochure lists 1600W/2200W/2700W/3200W CRPS options; select supported power supplies for the actual configuration
Redundancy	Four hot-swap power supplies with an N+N option; validate usable redundancy against system load and power-supply configuration
Cooling	Confirm the actual air- or liquid-cooling configuration; liquid cooling is not assumed for every delivered configuration
