Overview
Cisco Unified Computing System (Cisco UCS) E-Series servers bring data center-class, virtualization-ready blade servers to the branch office. Cisco UCS E-Series Servers are high-density, single-socket blade servers designed to balance simplicity, performance, and application density while operating in an energy-efficient environment. These powerful, small form-factor (SFF), x86 64-bit blade servers are housed within Cisco Integrated Services Routers Generation 2 (ISR G2) and Cisco 4451-X ISR networking platforms and are designed to host essential infrastructure services and mission-critical business applications in the lean branch office.¦Cisco UCS E-Series Servers deliver next-generation processor E5-2400 and E3-1100 product family technology in combination with integrated remote lights-out management in a blade server form factor. These powerful processors deliver multiple cores and threads in a reduced-power envelope, providing improved performance and better energy efficiency than preceding models, making them an excellent platform for introducing virtualization into the branch office. The innovative, zero-footprint form factor of the Cisco UCS E- Series Servers in conjunction with the Intel Xeon processor E5-2400 and E3-1100 product families offer significantly lower total cost of ownership (TCO), increased business agility, and greater reliability when compared to standalone rack-mount and tower servers.
