Selling Features Price/Performance • The extremely high degree of integration in the various BladeCenter chassis reduces the need for server components, replacing num erous fans, KVM and Eth ernet c.
capabilities by “surfacing” pertinent informat ion about y our blade server. The easy-to-use Deployment Wizard also provides step-by-step installation instructions and offers automated deployment capabilities. • Each BladeCenter chassis include s an Advanced Management Module (AMM).
BladeCenter S provides: • A choice of installation methods — Designed for either rack or deskside use with the optional Office Enablement Kit, it’s ideal for office s or remote/branch locations.
/ 1400W high-efficiency hot-swap/redundant po wer modules (upgradeable to four ), capable of handling the power needs of the entire cha ssis. Many servers use pow er supplies with an efficiency leve l of approxim ately 65-75%. Because BladeCenter S uses power supplies that are at least 90% efficient , much less power is w asted as heat.
come standard with the chassis. They are capable of providing efficient cooling for up to 14 blades . These modules replace the need for each bl ade to contain its o wn fans. The two blowers are more energy efficient than dozens or hun dreds of smaller fans would be, and they offer many fewer points of potential f ailure.
modules interface w ith all of the blade servers in the ch assis and alleviate the need for external switches or expensiv e, cum bersome, and error-prone cabling. All connections are done internally via the midplane. Two module slots are reserved for hot-sw ap/redundant Gigabit Ethernet swit ch modules.
• NEBS Lev el 3/ETSI-tested — Designed for the Network Equipment Provider (NEP)/Service Provider (SP) environment. Also id eal for government/military , aerospace, industrial automation/robotics, medical imaging and f inance.
switches. (And the integrated sw itches may be less ex pensive than external, self-powered switches.) Plus, the number of power distribution units (PDUs) needed per rack may be lessened , because there are fewer discrete devices to have to plug in.
• Two hot-swappable Media Trays each contain tw o external USB 2.0 ports, a light path diagnostic panel , and support a 1GB/4GB compact flash (CF) option — The media trays are shared by all the blades in the server. This re duces unnecessary parts (and reduces the number of parts than can fail).
• Local update of BMC firmware • Firmw are firewall • Support for IPMI v2.0 compliant management software (e.g., xCAT) • Other mandatory and optional IPMI BMC functions Other systems managemen.
• Net work attached storage (NAS) — Provides a large capacity, highly available and secure environment for storing mission-crit ical data. The System Storage ™ N series attaches to IBM BladeCenter using integrated Ethernet switch modu les.
Additional services include hardware wa rranty upg rades and factory-installed Product Customization Services (PCS), such as asset tagging, hardware integration, software imaging and operating systems personalization. IBM offers extensive technical support b y phone and via the Web.
