The Dell PowerEdge FX2s enclosure is the uniquely small modular foundation for the PowerEdge FX architecture, an extremely flexible and efficient platform for building an IT infrastructure that precisely fits your computing needs.
The PowerEdge FX2s is a 2U hybrid rack-based computing platform that combines the density and efficiencies of blades with the simplicity and cost benefits of rack-based systems.
The FX architecture’s innovative modular design supports IT resource building blocks of varying sizes (compute, storage, networking and management) so data centers have greater flexibility to construct their infrastructures.
The FN I/O Module — purpose built for the FX2s — delivers choice for simplified network deployment and management, optimizing FX2s performance and enabling plug-and-play LAN/SAN convergence.
FX2s 2 bay
The FX2s enclosure allows servers and storage to share power, cooling, management and networking. It houses redundant power supply units (2000W, 1600W or 1100W) and eight cooling fans. The FX2s’s compact flexible design, the FX2s lets you simply and efficiently add resources when and where you need them, so you can let demand and budget determine your level of investment.
The Dell OpenManage systems management portfolio simplifies and automates server lifecycle management — making IT operations more efficient and Dell servers the most productive, reliable and cost effective. Dell’s agent-free integrated Dell Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle Controller makes server deployment, configuration and updates automated and efficient. Using Chassis Management Controller (CMC), an embedded component that is part of every FX2s chassis, you’ll have the choice of managing server nodes individually or collectively via a browser-based interface.
