Space Optimization
•
Space savings is achieved by using servers with BBP®
modules installed instead of connecting the servers to
bulky external UPS systems.
•
Additional savings can be realized by utilizing the space
savings from eliminated or downsized UPS system to
accommodate more rack-mounted servers.
Power Efficiency
Supermicro server solutions that incorporate
BBP® modules offer greater power efficiency
by replacing external 92% - 96% efficient UPS
systems with an inline solution that offers
99% efficiency. In addition, BBPs maintain
system availability, reduce installation space,
facility costs and administrative burden.
Supermicro BBP® can allow systems to shut
down gracefully or provide necessary power
until AC power is resumed by the electric
generator during the event of a power failure,
without installing extra UPS systems.
Management
Advanced System Management
•
IPMI Command line interface and web GUI are both
available for remote monitoring and control of the BBP.
•
Flexible system control is initiated in the event of a
power failure.
•
Manual or Auto Discharge maintenance options are
available.
Flexible System Control and Power Down Options
•
Performs graceful shutdown during a power failure
•
Allows a specific power on time to facilitate data backup
or to allow the power generator to resume power.
Runtime
Under typical conditions, below is the Estimated Runtime
of the current BBP® modules. Runtime can be extended
by adding additional BBP® modules to a system.
