Understanding the Server

These topics list the installation tasks, provide an overview of the server, and highlight the key

“Server Overview” on page 10

“Handling Precautions” on page 23

“Installing the Server” on page 25

“Electrical Specifications” on page 16

The maximum operating input current values are based on P / (V *0.90), where P = max. operating input power, V= input voltage. Example:

620W / (120 * 0.90) = 6.89A You can use this equation to calculate your maximum operating current at your input voltage.

Maximum server configuration specification under nominal temperature and voltage conditions (one 4.133-GHz T7 processor with sixteen

32GB DDR4 DIMMs, 4 HDDs, 4 NVMe SFFs, and 6 I/O cards).

This topic includes these specifications that apply to both server configurations:

Caution - Proper airflow is essential for keeping the server's internal temperatures within a safe

operating range.

Install the server so the front faces the cool aisle and the rear faces the warm aisle.

Do not direct warm air into the server.

Prevent recirculation of air within a rack or cabinet.

When servicing server internal components, ensure that air ducts, baffles, and filler panels

are properly installed.
