ULTRA SLIM

Front-End Server

NEC Express5800/120Rd-1, successor of 120Rc-1, is an innovative

slim rack-dense server designed to deliver maximum performance in a very limited space. It is an easy-to-deploy general purpose solution ideal for ISPs, ASPs, dot-coms companies and enterprises looking for a front-end Web application hosting server or a network infrastructure server.

Front-end or general-purpose Internet servers, featuring two processors, are increasingly popular for companies conducting e-Business. Reliable and affordable NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 address the infrastructure trend of "scaling out," where companies and service providers quickly deploy more servers to accommodate growth in server workloads.

NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 is housed in a compact 1U rack-optimised chassis, which allows up to 42 servers in an industry-standard 19” 42U rack. Based on the E7501 from Intel supporting 533MHz Front Side Bus and 3-peer PCI, the Express5800/120Rd-1 takes full benefits of the latest Xeon processors with FC-mPGA2 packaging and high- performance DDR266 SDRAM memories.

NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 is a bi-processor design supporting Xeon

processors 2.4BGHzwith 512KB cache, 3.06GMHz with 512KB and

3.20GHz with 1MB cache. NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 offers up to 12GB SDRAM memory (Standard DIMM must be replaced) with ECC protection and 2 free PCI slots for convenient expandability. Embedded Ultra 320 SCSI controllers and integrated dual-channelauto-sensing 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet also guarantee outstanding performance and flexible network configuration.

Despite its small 1U form factor, NEC Express5800/120Rd-1 can support 3 internal hot-swap drives (439.5GB max) with Ultra 320 technology for transfer rates up to 320MB/s. Several external disk expansion units are also available offering maximum storage modularity.

Designed with simplicity for easy installation and manageability, the Express5800/120Rd-1 comes standard with NEC EXPRESSBUILDER set-up and configuration software and NEC ESMPRO management software. In addition, it incorporates unique integrated remote management capabilities providing remote emergency access and control of server resources (via LAN or modem connection) in any situation.

Coupled with NEC comprehensive portfolio of storage products, rack- optimised servers and space-saving rack options, the ultra slim NEC Express5800/120Rd-1is a robust, cost effective computing solution your quickly growing business can rely on.
