Preface

The PRIMERGY RX200 S5 rack server is a universal and high-performance
platform designed for a whole range of application areas in data center and
server farm concepts. The ultra-compact rack server is ideal for web services
and solutions such as caching, gateway and firewall applications. Other
application areas include front-end solutions (tier 1) in modern multi-tier
configurations, and e-mail service and appliance solutions.
The PRIMERGY RX200 S5 offers a balanced architecture that incorporates
next generation main memory (DDR3) and I/O technologies (PCIe Gen2). The
backplane is already provided for SAS 2.0 and 6 Gbit/s SAS and the chipset
prepared for the next generation of 6-core processors. High performance,
scalability, impressive reliability and excellent extension options are combined
in a powerful design.
The Cool-safe™ cooling concept with improved air flow cooling technology
(honeycomb design) ensures the highest possible performance of the
processors at work; at the same time, the system is extremely reliable thanks to
the reduced heat dissipation.
The highly compact server occupies just one height unit (HU) in the rack.
