HP 681844-B21 – HP C7000 G3 Blade Enclosure with 1xOA & 6xPSU

Detailed Description:

The HP 681844-B21 represents a pinnacle of blade server technology, encapsulating the best in power efficiency, cooling, and configuration flexibility in the form of the HP C7000 G3 Blade Enclosure. This robust enclosure comes equipped with one Onboard Administrator (OA) module and six power supply units (PSUs), tailored to meet the demanding needs of enterprise-grade data centers. The C7000 G3 enclosure is designed to house HP’s BladeSystem servers, offering a scalable and modular approach to deploying server resources. The inclusion of one OA module allows for streamlined management of both the enclosure and the blade servers housed within it. This module facilitates various management tasks such as monitoring system health, managing power consumption, and deploying software updates across the blades, all from a single interface. Moreover, the six PSUs ensure that the enclosure and its servers have ample power to operate efficiently while also providing redundancy to protect against PSU failures. These power supplies are hot-swappable, minimizing downtime by allowing for repairs and upgrades without shutting down the entire system. The HP C7000 G3’s design emphasizes cooling efficiency, with a sophisticated airflow system that maintains optimal temperatures for the blade servers. This not only ensures performance but also extends the life of the components by reducing thermal stress. Additionally, the enclosure’s modular design supports a wide range of server blades, storage blades, and interconnect modules, providing businesses with the flexibility to tailor their infrastructure to their specific needs. From a density perspective, the HP C7000 G3 can house up to 16 server blades in a 10U space, making it an ideal solution for data centers looking to maximize their server density while minimizing their footprint. Its comprehensive feature set, coupled with HP’s reputation for reliability, makes the HP 681844-B21 C7000 G3 Blade Enclosure a cornerstone for modern data center infrastructure.
