Description

2U Rack Server Features

A 2U rack server is a powerful and scalable computing solution designed for businesses, data centers, and enterprise environments. With a larger chassis than a 1U server, it provides enhanced performance, expandability, and cooling efficiency. Below are the key features of a 2U rack server:

1. Form Factor & Build

2U Rack-Mountable: Fits into a standard 19-inch server rack with a height of 3.5 inches.
Optimized Space Utilization: Balances performance and expandability while maintaining compactness.
Tool-less Rail Kits: Easy installation and servicing.

2. Performance & Processing Power

High-Performance CPUs: Supports Intel Xeon or AMD EPYC processors (single or dual-socket).
Multi-Core Architecture: Ideal for compute-intensive workloads.
Advanced Cooling: Larger chassis allows for better airflow and thermal management.

3. Memory & Storage

Expandable RAM: Supports DDR4/DDR5 ECC memory, with capacities up to 4TB.
High Storage Capacity: Supports up to 24x 2.5” or 12x 3.5” SATA, SAS, or NVMe drives.
Hot-Swap Drive Bays: Allows easy replacement without downtime.
RAID Support: Configurable RAID (0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 60) for redundancy and performance.

4. Networking & Expansion

Multiple Ethernet Ports: Standard 1GbE, 10GbE, 25GbE, or higher connectivity options.
PCIe Expansion Slots: Supports multiple GPUs, NICs, or storage controllers.
Remote Management: Integrated IPMI, iDRAC, or iLO for remote monitoring.

5. Security & Reliability

TPM 2.0 Support: Enhances encryption and security features.
Redundant Power Supplies: Ensures high availability and uptime.
Advanced Cooling Solutions: Multiple hot-swappable fans for efficient thermal control.

6. Virtualization & OS Compatibility

Virtualization-Optimized: Supports VMware, Hyper-V, and Proxmox.
OS Support: Compatible with Windows Server, Linux, and other enterprise operating systems.

7. Energy Efficiency & Compliance

80 PLUS Certified PSUs: Improves energy efficiency and reduces operational costs.
Environmentally Friendly: Compliant with RoHS and ENERGY STAR certifications.

A 2U rack server is ideal for high-performance computing, virtualization, cloud hosting, and enterprise applications, offering a balance of power, expandability, and reliability.
