Safety Instructions

English

Use the following safety guidelines to help protect yourself and your notebook.

When Using Your W476 / W576 Notebook Computer

CAUTION: Do not operate your portable computer for an extended period of time with the base resting directly on your body. With extended operation, heat can build up in the base. Allowing sustained contact with the skin can cause discomfort or a burn.

•Do not attempt to service the notebook yourself. Always follow in- stallation instructions closely.

•Do not carry a battery in your pocket, purse, or other container where metal objects (such as car keys) could short-circuit the bat- tery terminals. The resulting excessive current flow can generate extremely high temperature and may cause burns to your skin.

•Be sure that nothing rests on your AC adapter’s power cable and that the cable is not located where it can be tripped over or stepped on.

•While you are using the computer or charging the battery, place the AC adapter in a ventilated area, like on a desktop or on the floor. Do not cover the AC adapter with papers or other items that may prevent ventilation. Also, do not use the AC adapter while it is inside a carrying case.

•Do not insert objects into the air vent of your notebook computer.

Doing so can cause short-circuiting and may result in fire or electri- cal shock.

•Use only the AC adapter and batteries that are supplied by your notebook manufacturer. Using other types of battery or AC adapter may heighten the risk of fire or explosion.

•Incorrectly placed batteries may result in an explosion.

•Replace only with the same or compatible battery recommended by the manufacturer.

•Please discard used batteries according to the manufacturer’s in- structions.

•Before you connect your notebook to a power source, ensure that the voltage rating of the AC adapter matches that of the available power source.

-115 V/60 Hz in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries such as South Korea.

-100 V/50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100 V/60Hz in western Japan.

-230 V/50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East.

• If you use an extension cord with your AC adapter, ensure that the total ampere rating of all devices plugged into the extension cord does not exceed its total capacity.

•When removing battery from your notebook, first turn off the sys- tem, disconnect the AC adapter from the electrical outlet, then re- move the battery.

•To avoid risk of an electrical shock, do not connect or disconnect any cables, or perform maintenance or reconfiguration of this prod- uct during a thunderstorm.

•Do not throw batteries into fire, doing so may cause explosion. Check with local authorities first for battery disposal instructions.

•When setting up your notebook for work, place it on a level sur- face.

W476, W576 specifications

Intel's W576 and W476 processors are innovative additions to the company's Xeon lineup, designed specifically for high-performance computing tasks and enterprise-level applications. These processors cater to a diverse range of industries requiring robust processing power, reliability, and energy efficiency.

The Intel W576 processor is equipped with 24 cores and 48 threads, featuring an impressive base clock speed of 2.6 GHz, which can boost up to 4.4 GHz with Intel Turbo Boost technology. This architecture allows for exceptional multitasking capabilities, making it suitable for data-intensive applications, virtualization, and AI workloads. The W576 supports Intel's Advanced Vector Extensions (AVX-512), which enhances its ability to perform complex calculations efficiently, vital for scientific simulations and machine learning processes.

On the other hand, the W476 processor, although slightly less powerful with its 16 cores and 32 threads, still delivers formidable performance with a base clock speed of 2.4 GHz and a turbo frequency of 4.3 GHz. The W476 is designed for workloads that do not require the same level of parallel processing as the W576 but still demand substantial computational power, making it ideal for enterprises focused on reliable performance without extreme scalability requirements.

Both processors integrate Intel's Speed Shift technology, which allows for quicker adjustments to CPU performance based on workload demands. This contributes to improved power efficiency and thermal management, ensuring that both processors operate optimally under varying workloads. They also support Intel Deep Learning Boost, which enables accelerated AI inference performance, crucial for businesses leveraging machine learning solutions.

Furthermore, these processors include features such as Intel Optane memory support, which enhances system responsiveness and storage capabilities, and support for DDR4 memory up to 3200 MT/s, allowing for faster data throughput. The W576 and W476 also possess robust security features including Intel Software Guard Extensions which provide hardware-based protection for sensitive data and applications.

In summary, the Intel W576 and W476 processors represent a significant step forward in processing technology for enterprise environments. With their advanced architectures, improved power efficiency, and support for modern workloads, they provide the versatility and performance required in today's data-driven landscape. Whether for high-demand AI applications or reliable enterprise computing, these processors stand out as powerful solutions that align with the evolving needs of the industry.
