Overview
With powerful data center−class servers that are virtualization-ready, you can host business applications and network services right in your branch-office edge router. Cisco UCS E-Series M6 Server brings data center-class blade servers to the branch office.¦This powerful, small-form-factor, x86 64-bit blade servers reside in the Cisco Catalyst 8300 Series Edge Platforms. The blade is virtualization-ready and can host essential infrastructure services and mission-critical business applications, all while you maintain a lean branch-office environment.¦The Cisco Unified Computing System (Cisco UCS) E-Series M6 Server is available as a double-wide module. The double-wide module occupies two service-module slots side by side.¦The Cisco UCS E-Series M6 Server is a high-density blade server with single-socket Intel Xeon D processor. It balances simplicity, performance, and application density while operating in an energy-efficient environment, providing better energy efficiency than preceding models. The server also includes integrated remote lights-out management.¦The E-Series M6 server thus provides an excellent platform for introducing virtualization into the branch office and supporting mission-critical business applications. The innovative, zero-footprint form factor of the M6 server, in conjunction with the lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the Intel Xeon processor, increases business agility and enhances reliability when compared to standalone rack-mount and tower servers.
