Product Brief Intel Server Board S5500WB Intel Server Board S5500WB Intel Server System SR1690WB Intel Server System SR1690WB Intel Server System SR1695WB Intel Server System SR1695WB Rack-optimized server products, purpose-built for high energy efficiency and lowest total cost of ownership in dense computing applications. Key Features l Supports up to two Intel Xeon Processor 5500 or 5600 series l Highly scalable DDR3 memory (8 DIMMs) l One PCI Express* 2.0 x16 (x8 electrical) slot plus one Intel I/O Expansion Module (PCI Express 2.0 x8) l Flexible storage controller options l Designed with state-of-the-art power and cooling optimizations for demanding data-center performance and reduced energy consumption l Optimized for low TCO with policy-based power management through Intel Intelligent Power Node Manager and integrated DCMI / IPMI 2.0 manageability Target Applications: High-density computing environments where energy costs and total cost of ownership are paramount such as Internet portal data centers, cloud computing and High Performance Computing (HPC). Board Features and Benefits Support for one or two Intel Xeon Processor 5500 or 5600 series Increase server performance with no increase in power consumption Power efficient board architecture with optimized voltage regulator designs and a specialized layout for efficient cooling Voltage-regulator optimization reduces the excess heat produced by inefficient and wasteful power conversion and a spread-core lay-out allows lower fan speeds, reducing the power used to move air across the board. Together these optimizations reduce power consumption Fast, scalable and energy-efficient DDR3 memory Eight, registered or unbuffered DIMMs at up to 1333 MHz, and 6 memory channels ensure energy-efficient performance for any application Expandable I/O architecture One PCIe 2.0 slot plus an optional Intel I/O Expansion Module provide maximum flexibility in 1U rack mount applications Multiple storage controller options Six integrated 3 Gbps SATA ports or optional SAS via Intel I/O Expansion Modules with either SAS or SAS RAID support maximize storage flexibility without consuming the PCI Express slot System Features and Benefits Purpose built, 1U rack server chassis Energy efficient design optimized for integration with Intel Server Board S5500WB High efficiency power-supply options Systems with either a 650-watt high efficiency (80 Plus) power supply or 450-watt high efficiency AC or DC (1+0) or redundant (1+1) power supply configurations, all PMBus capable supporting Intel Intelligent Power Node Manager for policy-based power capping to enable increased rack densities and improved data center utilization Optimized fan speed control & thermal solutions BIOS optimizations include custom fan speed control that enables slower fan speeds, reducing system power requirements, saving energy and reducing TCO Flexible storage configuration Four hot swap SAS/SATA drive bays supporting either 3.5 or 2.5 HDD in the same drive carrier, providing the flexible storage configurations you need Technology that Defines Innovation Intel server technologies provide powerful capabilities designed to make Intel Server Products more reliable, more efficient, more available, and easier to service. These innovative tech- nologies are seamlessly integrated into Intel Server Products to complement the capabilities of the latest generation Intel Xeon processor and chipset technologies. Intel SpeedStep Technology Dynamically adjusts processor core frequency and voltages which can in turn reduce power consumption and reduce operating costs for data centers Intel Active Airflow Control Operates chassis fans at the minimum speed required to cool the system, reserving additional speed for those times when ambient conditions or high work- loads require it Intel Server Management Allows increased IT efficiency with a combination of hardware and software products that streamline the deployment and management of servers
