NOTE:
If a system with 1100 W AC or HVDC PSU operates from 100 to 120V, the power rating per PSU is derated to 1050
W.
NOTE:
If a system with 1600 W PSUs operates from 100 to 120 V, then the power rating per PSU is derated t o 800 W.
NOTE:
Heat dissipation is calculated using the PSU wattage rating.
NOTE:
This system is also designed to connect to the IT power systems with a phase to phase voltage not exceeding
230 V.
NOTE:
PSUs rated for 1600 W and higher require high-line voltage (200-240 V) to supply their rated capacity.
System battery specifications
The PowerEdge R640 system supports CR 2032 lithium coin cell system battery.
Expansion cards and expansion card risers
NOTE:
A System Event Log (SEL) event is logged if an expansion card riser is not support ed or missing. It does not
prevent your system from t urning on. However, if a F1/F2 pause occurs and an error message is display ed.
Expansion bus specifications
The PowerEdge R640 system sup ports PCI express (PCIe) generation 3 expansion cards, which are installed on the system, using
expansion card risers. This system supports 1A, 2A, 1B, and 2B expansion card risers.
Expansion card installation guidelines
Depending on your system configuration, the following PCI Express (PCIe) generation 3 expansion cards are supported:

The following table provides guidelines for installing expansion cards to ensure proper cooling and mechanical fit. The expansion cards with
the highest priority should be installed first using the slot priority indicated. All the other expansion cards should be installed in the card
priority and slot priority order.
