Manageability and Security
The 2180 provides the following features to ensure manageability and security:
●
The iBMC monitors server operating status and provides remote
management.
●
The integrated industry-standard Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI)
increases efficiency of setup, configuration, and update, and simplifies fault
handling.
●
The front bezel in the server chassis is locked to ensure local data security and
reliability.
Energy Efficiency
The 2180 provides the following features to improve energy efficiency:
●
The 2180 supports Platinum power supply units (PSUs), which provide 94%
power efficiency at 50% load.
●
The voltage regulator-down (VRD) PSUs reduce the energy loss in DC/DC
power conversion.
●
The server supports active/standby power supplies.
●
The 2180 supports Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) intelligent fan speed
adjustment, reducing power consumption.
●
The improved thermal design with energy-efficient fan modules ensures
optimal heat dissipation and reduces overall system power consumption.
●
Drives can be powered on at different times to reduce startup power
consumption.
●
The 2180 supports SSDs. SSDs consume 80% less power than HDDs.
