SuperServer 2027TR-D70RF(+) USER'S MANUAL
Front Control Panel
Each control panel on the chassis front handle provides system monitoring and
control for one server node. LEDs indicate system power, HDD activity, network
activity, system overheat and power supply failure. A main power button and a
system reset button are also included.
I/O Ports
Each node provides a low-profile expansion card slot, a COM port, a VGA port, two
USB 2.0 ports, one IPMI Ethernet port and two Ethernet ports.
Cooling System
The chassis accepts four system fans powered from the motherboards or the
HDD backplane. Two fans on each side are controlled by the nearby serverboard,
so that when one of the nodes is removed, the fans for the second node continue
to function.
Air Shrouds
The chassis includes two plastic air shrouds that direct the airflow where cooling
is needed on each serverboard. Always use the air shroud.
Mounting Rails
The chassis includes a set of quick-release rails, and can be placed in a rack for
secure storage and use. To setup your rack, follow the step-by-step instructions
included in this manual.
