Air Shrouds
The F418IL chassis requires mylar air shrouds for each node to direct the airflow
where cooling is needed. The air shroud will differ for different serverboards. If using
a serverboard which is not the default in the chassis, refer to the optional parts in
the Appendix of this manual, or the Supermicro Web site at
to purchase the proper air shroud.
Mounting Rails
The F418IL includes a set of 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.

Advanced Power Management
Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (NM)
The Intel® Intelligent Power Node Manager (IPNM) provides your system with
real-time thermal control and power management for maximum energy efficiency.
Although IPNM Specification Version 1.5 is supported by the BMC (Baseboard
Management Controller), your system must also have IPNM-compatible
Manageability Engine (ME) firmware installed to use this feature.
Manageability Engine (ME)
The Manageability Engine, which is an ARC controller embedded in the IOH (I/O
Hub), provides Server Platform Services (SPS) to your system. The services
provided by SPS are different from those provided by the ME on client platforms.
