An integrated VGA-compatible video subsystem with an ATI RAGE XL video controller. This video subsystem contains 8
MB of SDRAM video memory (nonupgradable). Maximum resolution is 1600 x 1200 x 16.7 million colors
(noninterlaced).
An integrated, dual-channel Ultra320 SCSI host adapter.
Optional 1 x 2 backplane automatically configures the ID numbers and termination on individual hard drives, greatly
simplifying drive installation.
One integrated 10/100/1000 NIC, which provides an Ethernet interface.
Embedded systems management circuitry that monitors operation of the system fans as well as critical system voltages
and temperatures. The systems management circuitry works in conjunction with your systems management software.
Back-panel connectors including video, keyboard, mouse, two serial, two USB, one NIC, and one optional embedded
remote access Ethernet connector.
For more information about specific features, see "Technical Specifications."
Supported Operating Systems
Your system supports the Microsoft® Windows® Powered operating system.
Power Protection Devices
Certain devices protect your system from the effects of problems such as power surges and power failures.
PDU — Uses circuit breakers to ensure that the AC current load does not exceed the PDU's rating.
Surge protector — Prevents voltage spikes, such as those that may occur during an electrical storm, from entering the
system through the electrical outlet. They do not protect against brownouts, which occur when the voltage drops more
than 20 percent below the normal AC line voltage level.
Line conditioner — Maintains a system's AC power source voltage at a moderately constant level and provides
protection from brownouts, but does not protect against a complete power loss.
UPS — Uses battery power to keep the system running when AC power is unavailable. The battery is charged by AC
power while it is available so that after AC power is lost, the battery can provide power to the system for a limited
amount of time—from 15 minutes to approximately an hour. A UPS that provides only 5 minutes of battery power
allows you to shutdown the system. Use surge protectors and PDUs with all universal power supplies, and ensure that
the UPS is UL-safety approved.
