HPE C7000 Blade System

A BladeSystem c7000 enclosure holds up to 16 server and/or storage blades plus redundant network and storage switches. It includes a shared, multi-terabit High-Speed Mid-Plane for Wire-Once connectivity of server blades to network and shared storage.

Power is delivered through a pooled power backplane that ensures the full capacity of the redundant Hot-Plug power supplies is available to all blades.

Below some basic functions of the options we will typically stock at Tekmart Africa.

Specs::

:: Up to 16 Half-Height server blades, 8 Full-Height server blades, and/or 8 expansion blades per enclosure (Not exceeding 16 total blades).
:: Up to 4 redundant interconnect I/O fabrics (Ethernet, Fibre Channel, InfiniBand, iSCSI, SAS, etc.) supported simultaneously within the enclosure.
:: Choice of Single-Phase High-Line AC, Three-Phase High-Line AC, Single-Phase high voltage AC, -48 V dc, or high voltage DC power options for flexibility in connecting to datacenter power.
