Product Overview

The ServeRAID M5100 Series Battery Kit provides an inexpensive alternative to using an 
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) and a second level of fault tolerance when used 
with a UPS.

The ServeRAID M5100 Series Battery Kit product is an intelligent battery backup unit 
(iBBU) based on Lithium ion (LiON) battery cell technology. The unit protects the 
integrity of the cached data on a ServeRAID M5100 Series Controller for up to 48 hours 
(depending on the derated retention time selected) in case of a complete AC power 
failure or a brief power outage.

Connect the remote ServeRAID M5100 Series Battery Kit unit by cable to the ServeRAID 
M5100 Series 512MB Cache/RAID 5 Upgrade, which is a transportable memory module 
installed on the following ServeRAID controllers:

ServeRAID M5110 SAS/SATA Controller
