Product Overview

Expand Data Center Capacity As the number of servers in your data center grows, so do your deployment and management headaches. In fact, with traditional pedestal and rack servers, data center staffing costs seem to grow dramatically as the data center grows. Now, the Intel® Blade Server Chassis SBCE lets you add servers to your data center while actually decreasing deployment and service work. Blade computing introduces a new data center paradigm where many ultra-thin compute blades share centralized resources such as power supplies, fans and network switches in a single chassis. The Intel Blade Server Chassis SBCE is an example of state-of-the-art blade engineering that allows you to greatly expand computing power while reducing management resources.
