Kingston - DDR5 - module - 16 GB - DIMM 288-PINS - 5600 MHz / PC5-44800 - CL46 - 1.1 V - unbuffered - on-die ECC (KSM56E46BS8KM-16HA)

Kingston KSM56E46BS8KM-16HA is a 16GB DDR5-5600 CL46 ECC registered memory module configured as 2G x 72-bit (1Rx8) and built from ten 2G x 8-bit FBGA components. The module follows JEDEC timings programmed in SPD at DDR5-5600 with latency 46-45-45 and operates at 1.1V. It uses a 288-pin DIMM form factor with gold-plated contact fingers suitable for servers and workstations that require ECC memory.

Advantages

The module provides error-correcting code (ECC) support for improved data integrity and stability in multi-user or mission-critical systems. DDR5-5600 frequency and CL46 latency deliver increased bandwidth compared with previous DDR generations, while the 1.1V operating voltage helps reduce power consumption. The 288-pin DIMM and standard JEDEC SPD programming ensure compatibility with compatible server and workstation platforms.

Key specifications

• Manufacturer part number: KSM56E46BS8KM-16HA

How to use

Install the DIMM into a compatible 288-pin DDR5 DIMM slot on an ECC-capable motherboard following the motherboard manufacturer's instructions and anti-static precautions. Ensure firmware/BIOS supports DDR5-5600 and ECC; the SPD is preprogrammed to JEDEC DDR5-5600 timing of 46-45-45 at 1.1V, so manual configuration is usually unnecessary unless platform-specific settings are required.

Recommendations

Verify motherboard compatibility with ECC and DDR5-5600 modules and update BIOS/firmware if needed. For multi-module systems, install modules in matched pairs or per the board's recommended slot population to ensure optimal performance and ECC functionality.
