Table 2. Features and specificationsMicroprocessors:v Supports up two Intel Xeon dual-coreprocessors or two Intel quad-coreprocessorsImportant: Do not mix dual-coreprocessors and quad-core processorsin the same server.v 4 MB shared Level-2 cachev 667, 1066, or 1333 MHz front-sidebus (FSB)Note: Use the Configuration/SetupUtility program to determine the typeand speed of the microprocessors.Memory:v Minimum: 1 GBv Maximum: 32 GB (16 GB in mirroredmode)v Type: PC2-5300, ECC fully-bufferedwith double-data-rate 2 (DDR2)SDRAMv Connectors: eight dual inline memorymodule (DIMM) connectors, two-wayinterleavedDrives (depending on the model):v Diskette (optional): External USBFDD drivev Hard disk drive: SATA or SASv One of the following IDE drives:– CD-ROM– CD-RW (optional)– DVD-ROM (optional)– DVD-ROM/CD-RW (optional)Expansion bays (depending on themodel):v Three half-high 5.25-in. bays (oneCD drive installed) or one half-highCD or DVD drive and one full-hightape drivev Eight 3.5-in. hot-swap hard disk drivebaysNote: You can install up to eighthot-swap drives when you order the4-pack drive backplane option.PCI expansion slots (depending onthe model):v Six PCI expansion slots– Three PCI Express 8x slots (twox8 links and one x4 link)– One PCI 32-bit/33 MHz slot– Two PCI-X 64-bit/133 MHz slotsAcoustical noise emissions(depending on your model):v Sound power, idling: 5.6 bel or 6.0belv Sound power, operating: 6.0 bel or6.1 belFans: Three speed-controlled hot-swapfans (standard)Note: Six fans are required to provideredundancy in hot-swap models; therefore,you must install an additional redundantpower and cooling option kit (the option kitcomes with a hot-swap power supply andthree hot-swap fans) to upgrade toredundant mode.Power supply:One of the following power supplies:v One nonredundant 670 watt (90-240 Vac)v One 835 watt (90-240 V ac).Note: Two 835-watt power suppliesprovide redundancy in hot-swapmodels; therefore, you must install anadditional redundant power and coolingoption kit (the option kit comes with an835-watt hot-swap power supply andthree hot-swap fans) to upgrade toredundant mode.Size:v Height: 440 mm (17.3 in.)v Depth: 747 mm (29.4 in.)v Width: 218 mm (8.6 in.)v Weight: 20 kg (42 lb) to 34 kg (75 lb)depending upon configurationIntegrated functions:v Baseboard management controller(BMC) or onboard server processorv Broadcom 5721 10/100/1000 Ethernetcontroller on the system board withRJ-45 Ethernet portv Dual-channel (four ports per channel)onboard SAS/SATA controller withintegrated RAID supportv Remote Supervisor Adapter II SlimLinev Six-port, Serial ATA controllerv Integrated RAID capability (HostRAID)v Two serial portsv One parallel portv Four Universal Serial Bus (USB) v2.0ports (two on front and two on rear)v Keyboard portv Mouse portv ATA-100 single-channel IDE controller(bus mastering)v ATI ES1000 video controller– Compatible with SVGA and VGA– 16 MB SDRAM video memoryDiagnostic LEDs:v Fansv Memoryv Hard disk drives (redundant models)v Power supplyEnvironment:v Air temperature:– Server on: 10° to 35°C (50° to 95°F)Altitude: 0 to 914 m (2998.0 ft)– Server off: -40° to 60°C (-40° to 140°F)Altitude: 0 to 2133 m (7000.0 ft)v Humidity (operating and storage): 8% to80%Heat output:Approximate heat output in British thermalunits (Btu) per hour:v Minimum configuration: 781 Btu per hour(229 watts)v Maximum configuration: 1910 Btu per hour(560 watts)Electrical input:v Sine-wave input (50 or 60 Hz) requiredv Input voltage and frequency rangesautomatically selectedv Input voltage low range:– Minimum: 100 V ac– Maximum: 127 V acv Input voltage high range:– Minimum: 200 V ac– Maximum: 240 V acv Input kilovolt-amperes (kVA) approximately:– Minimum: 0.23 kVA (all models)– Maximum: 0.57 kVANotes:1. Power consumption and heat output varydepending on the number and type ofoptional features installed and thepower-management optional features inuse.2. These levels were measured in controlledacoustical environments according to theprocedures specified by the AmericanNational Standards Institute (ANSI) S12.10and ISO 7779 and are reported inaccordance with ISO 9296. Actualsound-pressure levels in a given locationmight exceed the average values statedbecause of room reflections and othernearby noise sources. The declaredsound-power levels indicate an upper limit,below which a large number of computerswill operate.Chapter 1. Introduction 7
