1-3 Server Chassis Features
The following is a general outline of the main features of the SC847E16-R1K28LPB
server chassis.
System Power
The SC847E16-R1K28LPB features a redundant (two separate power modules)
1280W high-ef
fi ciency power supply with I 2 C. This power redundancy feature allows
you to replace a failed power supply without shutting down the system.
Hard Drives
The SC847E16-R1K28LPB chassis was designed to support 36 dual-channel
SATA hard drives (24 on the front of the chassis and 12 located on the rear of the
chassis), which are hot-swappable units.
Front Control Panel
The control panel on the SuperServer 6047R-E1R36L provides you with system
monitoring and control. LEDs indicate system power, HDD activity, network activ-
ity, system overheat/fan fail and power supply failure. A main power button and a
system reset button are also included. In addition, two USB ports and a COM port
have been incorporated into the front of the chassis for convenient access.
Cooling System
The SC847E16-R1K28LPB chassis includes three 8-cm hot-plug system cooling
fans located in the middle section of the chassis. An air shroud channels the air
fl ow
from the system fans to ef fi ciently cool the processors and memory. Two additional
8-cm fans are located at the back of the chassis to expel hot air from the system.
Each power supply module also includes a cooling fan.
