Dell PowerEdge Servers: Addressing Your Energy Needs
Limitations on space, power and cooling capacity, combined with rising energy costs, present many energy and cost-related challenges. Our newest Dell PowerEdge™ servers feature Energy Smart technologies designed to reduce power consumption while increasing performance and capacity based on Dell’s five key technologies:
- Dell Energy Smart Power Supplies — Energy Smart Power Supply Units (PSUs) are engineered and “right-sized” to achieve some of the highest efficiencies in the industry by taking unneeded overhead out of the server power envelope.
|
- Dell Energy Smart System Design — Dell delivers breakthrough system design by leveraging high-efficiency voltage regulators, greater venting and airflow, “low-flow” fan technology, and advanced resource management to help maximize performance per watt.
|
- Dell Active Power Controller (DAPC) — PowerEdge servers with DAPC, a Dell exclusive, provide an operating system-agnostic power-management capability designed to save you money by lowering the system-level power draw at times of low utilization.
|
- Dell Energy Smart Management —This incorporates a significant increase in functionality over previous generations. Dell Energy Smart Management features include power capping, advanced power policies, power scheduling and device disablement.
|
- High-Efficiency Processors and Memory —Dell incorporates some of the latest processor and memory technologies to target the highest performance per watt for industry-standard servers.
