Supermicro GPU and HGX systems (8-GPU and 4-GPU nodes)

NEGATIVE, DELIBERATELY NOT STRUCTURAL: this is a quote-only channel - no price and no lead time is published on any page, checked 2026-10-04 per source spl-negative-no-oem-publishes-lead-time. The lead time exists inside a sales conversation; it is simply not printed. Contrast with the on-demand cloud records, where null means the concept does not apply.

EAR 3A090.a / 3A090.b (advanced-computing ICs) + EAR 742.6(a)(6)(iii)(A) (D:5/Macau end-user and ultimate-parent) + EAR 744.23 (Entity List screening) + EAR 744.6 (Unverified/MEU lists) (governs the most-restricted part on this record; the workstation-class parts on the same record fall under EAR 3A001 or EAR99 (below the 3A090.a TPP / performance-density thresholds) + EAR 744.23 (Entity List) + EAR 744.6 (Unverified / MEU lists))

LAYER 1, EXPORT LICENCE: under the Jan 2026 BIS rule 91 FR 1684 (effective 2026-01-15) the license review policy for advanced-computing commodities with TPP < 21,000 AND total DRAM bandwidth < 6,500 GB/s - the NVIDIA H200 and AMD MI325X are the rule's named examples - moved from PRESUMPTION OF DENIAL to CASE-BY-CASE REVIEW, but only for exports FROM THE UNITED STATES to end users located in China or Macau, and only against six exporter certifications filed via SNAP-R before shipment: (1) items below the thresholds with the count of units shipped in the US; (2) sufficient US supply, judged 'taking into account normal lead times'; (3) no diversion of global foundry capacity away from US end users; (4) aggregate China+Macau shipments <= 50% of total US end-use shipments of that product; (5) no end-user or use prohibition; (6) the consignee runs rigorous KYC. Every shipment must then pass a qualified third-party testing lab - US-headquartered, not controlled by a D:5/Macau entity, no ownership stake in any party, qualification revocable by BIS at any time - verifying TPP, total DRAM bandwidth, interconnect bandwidth and copackaged DRAM capacity. Reexports and in-country transfers of the same chips to China/Macau REMAIN PRESUMPTION OF DENIAL. LAYER 2, END-USER AND PARENT SCREENING: per BIS guidance of 2026-05-31 a licence is required where the consignee is HEADQUARTERED in Country Group D:5 (15 CFR part 740 supplement no. 1) or Macau OR whose ULTIMATE PARENT COMPANY is so headquartered - even when the consignee itself sits outside D:5/Macau. The requirement sits at EAR 742.6(a)(6)(iii)(A) for destinations outside the US, with an exception available only under the license exception at 740.2(a)(9)(ii). The destination country alone therefore never answers the question; screen the parent. LAYER 3, REMAINING LIMITS: exports to D:5/Macau-headquartered OR -parented entities stay PRESUMPTION OF DENIAL wherever the buyer sits, and the AI Diffusion Rule that would have set a country-tier structure on who could lawfully buy what was RESCINDED on 2025-05-13 and is not being enforced, so any recorded status rests on the instruments named here rather than on tiering. PER-RECORD QUALIFIER: The ids on this record span both controlled and uncontrolled parts - MI350X/MI350P/MI355X and HGX B200/B300 carry 3A090.a thresholds, while RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition sits on the professional/workstation band - so the regime recorded here is the one governing the MOST RESTRICTED part. Classify per configured SKU, not per channel.

QUOTE-ONLY - Supermicro's accelerator pages carry a 'Request Pricing' contact form and no price. The value of this record is the node-level BASELINE, verified from the air-cooled GPU portfolio page, which groups its systems by accelerator rather than by SKU: 'NVIDIA HGX Blackwell and Blackwell Ultra' supporting HGX B200 and B300 (up to 8TB DDR5, 10x PCIe 5.0); 'AMD Instinct MI350X' (up to 6TB DDR5); an '8-10 PCIe GPU' class explicitly for 'AI Factories and Large-scale AI Inference' listing RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition / Max-Q, RTX PRO 4500 Blackwell Server Edition, AMD Instinct MI350P and NVIDIA H200 NVL; and a '2-6 PCIe GPU' class for enterprise and edge. Concrete example model verified: SYS-521GE-TNRT, a 5U dual-root PCIe system with up to 10 GPUs on the X13DEG-OA board, NVIDIA-Certified. KEY BASIS POINT for anyone budgeting: this class of box is where the accelerator COMES WITH THE SYSTEM. There is no Supermicro SKU 'one H200 SXM'. A published base-system price from a Supermicro channel would exclude GPUs entirely, so a 'Supermicro 5U server' price and a 'Supermicro 8xH200 node' price are not comparable and the former is a trap. Supermicro also builds AMD Helios rackscale. LEAD TIME: null and it is an EXPLICIT NEGATIVE, checked 2026-10-04. This is a quote-only channel - no price and no lead time is published on any page, and AGENTS.md forbids inventing an unsourced number, so the field stays null with the reason recorded. The negative is itself a procurement fact: a channel that will not state a lead time is a channel where the lead time is set by whatever allocation you happen to have, and it is exactly the kind of number to ask for in writing before signing. Probe log and per-vendor detail in source spl-negative-no-oem-publishes-lead-time; the one figure published anywhere in this chain is AWS's 8-week MAXIMUM Capacity Block booking horizon, which is a commitment ceiling rather than a delivery time. EXPORT CONTROL (2026-10-04, mechanism-level; sources spl-eccn-3a090-ccl, spl-bis-2026-01-advanced-computing-case-by-case, spl-bis-2026-05-d5-guidance). The ids on this record span both controlled and uncontrolled parts, which is exactly why this channel is recorded as controlled rather than left ambiguous. MI350X/MI350P/MI355X and HGX B200/B300 carry ECCN 3A090.a thresholds (TPP >= 4800, or TPP >= 1600 with performance density >= 5.92) and the January 2026 rule (91 FR 1684) names AMD MI325X as a worked example of the TPP < 21,000 / DRAM bandwidth < 6,500 GB/s band that moved from presumption of denial to case-by-case. RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition and H200 NVL sit on the professional/datacenter side of the consumer line and follow the die, not the brand. Three layers must be cleared: the US export licence; the 742.6(a)(6)(iii)(A) end-user and ultimate-parent test, which reaches entities HEADQUARTERED OR PARENTED in D:5 or Macau even when the entity itself is outside those groups; and the surviving presumption of denial on reexports, in-country transfers and to D:5/Macau buyers. THE BASIS POINT ALREADY IN THIS RECORD IS ALSO THE CONTROL POINT: because at this channel the accelerator comes WITH the system, there is no Supermicro SKU 'one H200 SXM', so the exportable item is a system containing controlled silicon - the licence analysis and the price basis are both determined by that same packaging.
