IBM 8840 manual Features and specifications

Features and specifications

The following information is a summary of the features and specifications of the server. Depending on the server model, some features might not be available, or some specifications might not apply.

Racks are marked in vertical increments of 1.75 inches. Each increment is referred to as a unit, or “U.” A 1-U-high device is 1.75 inches tall.

–Maximum: 0.83 kVA

Notes:

1.Power consumption and heat output vary depending on the number and type of optional features installed and the power-management optional features in use.

2.These levels were measured in controlled acoustical environments according to the procedures specified by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) S12.10 and ISO 7779 and are reported in accordance with ISO 9296. Actual sound-pressure levels in a given location might exceed the average values stated because of room reflections and other nearby noise sources. The declared sound-power levels indicate an upper limit, below which a large number of computers will operate.
