Memory Module DELL AC958788 DDR5 16 GB 5600 MHz ECC

The DELL AC958788 DDR5 16GB 5600MHz ECC memory module is a 288-pin DIMM designed for desktop and workstation motherboards that support DDR5 ECC memory. With 16 GB capacity and a 5600 MHz memory clock speed, this module provides a balance of capacity and throughput for systems running memory-intensive applications. Built with ECC (Error-Correcting Code), it helps detect and correct single-bit memory errors to support higher data integrity and system reliability.

Advantages

This DDR5 16GB 5600MHz ECC module offers higher data transfer rates compared with previous-generation memory, along with improved power efficiency and signal integrity inherent to DDR5 architecture. ECC capability reduces the risk of data corruption in critical workloads, while the 288-pin DIMM form factor ensures compatibility with standard desktop and workstation DDR5 sockets. The module’s 16 GB capacity supports larger working sets and smoother multitasking for applications that require substantial RAM.

Key specifications

• Capacity: 16 GB
• Memory type: DDR5
• Clock speed: 5600 MHz
• Form factor: 288-pin DIMM
• Error correction: ECC (Error-Correcting Code)

How to use

Install the module into an available DDR5-compatible 288-pin DIMM slot on a motherboard that supports ECC functionality. Before installation, power down the system and disconnect power cables. Align the module notch with the slot key and press firmly until the retention clips engage. After installation, power on the system and confirm that the BIOS/UEFI recognises the new memory and that ECC is enabled if required. For multi-module configurations, consult the motherboard manual for recommended slot population and supported memory configurations.

Recommendations

Use this memory in systems that explicitly support DDR5 ECC modules to ensure proper ECC operation. When mixing modules, use identical specifications (capacity, speed, and ECC support) to avoid compatibility issues and to maintain optimal performance. Keep system firmware up to date for best compatibility with high-speed DDR5 memory.
