Features and specificationsThe following information is a summary of the features and specifications of theserver. Depending on the server model, some features might not be available, orsome specifications might not apply.Table 1. Features and specificationsMicroprocessor:v Supports up to two Intel ® Xeon ™multi-core microprocessors (oneinstalled)v Level-3 cachev QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) linksspeed up to 6.4 GT per secondNote:v Do not install an Intel Xeon ™ 5500series microprocessor and an Xeon ™5600 series microprocessor in the sameserver.v Use the Setup utility program todetermine the type and speed of themicroprocessors.v For a list of supported microprocessors,see http://www.ibm.com/servers/eserver/serverproven/compat/us/.Memory:v Minimum: 2 GBv Maximum: 192 GB– 48 GB using unbuffered DIMMs(UDIMMs)– 192 GB using registered DIMMs(RDIMMs)v Type: PC3-10600R-999, 800, 1067, and1333 MHz, ECC, DDR3 registered orunbuffered SDRAM DIMMsv Slots: 18 dual inlinev Supports (depending on the model):– 2 GB and 4 GB unbuffered DIMMs– 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB, and 16 GBregistered DIMMsSATA optical drives (optional):v DVD-ROMv Multi-burnerHot-swap fans:The server comes standard with fivedual-motor hot-swap fans.Hard disk drive expansion bays(depending on the model):v Up to eight 2.5-inch hot-swap SAS orhot-swap SATA hard disk drive baysv Up to four 2.5-inch hot-swapSAS/SATA or simple-swap SATA harddisk drive bays (on server models withan optional optical drive bay)PCI expansion slots:Supports two PCI riser slots:v Slot 1 supports low-profile cards (PCIExpress Gen2 x16 or PCI-X 1.0a64-bit/133 MHz ).v Slot 2 supports half-length, full-heightcards (PCI Express Gen2 x16 orPCI-X 1.0a 64-bit/133 MHz).Video controller (integrated into IMM):v Matrox G200eV (two analog ports -one front and one rear that can beconnected at the same time)Note: The maximum video resolutionis 1600 x 1200 at 75 Hz.– SVGA compatible video controller– DDR2 250 MHz SDRAM videomemory controller– Avocent Digital Video Compression– 16 MB of video memory (notexpandable)Power supply:v Maximum of two hot-swap powersupplies for redundancy support– 675-watt ac (110 or 220 V acfull-range)– 675-watt dc (-48 V or -60 V dc)Environment:v Air temperature:– Server on: 10°C to 35°C (50°F to95°F); altitude: 0 to 914.4 m (3000 ft),decrease system temperature by1.0°C for every 1000-foot increase inaltitude– Server off: 5°C to 45°C (41°F to113°F); maximum altitude: 3048 m(10000 ft)– Shipment: -40°C to 60°C(-40°F to 140°F); maximum altitude:3048 m (10000 ft)v Humidity:– Server on: 20% to 80%; maximumdew point: 21°C; maximum rate ofchange: 5 °C/hr– Server off: 8% to 80%; maximum dewpoint: 27°Cv Particulate contamination:Attention: Airborne particulates andreactive gases acting alone or incombination with other environmentalfactors such as humidity or temperaturemight pose a risk to the server.
