Removable motherboard drawer for easy maintenance

With the TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2's removable motherboard drawer, IT administrators have easier access in upgrading/installing RAM, the internal cache, 40GbE adapter and other components. The motherboard itself can be removed and replaced without needing to remove the heavy TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2 from the rack cabinet, making it especially useful in maintaining the TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2 in data centers with multiple rack cabinets.

Note: The TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2 is not hot-pluggable and must be powered-off before removing the motherboard drawer.

Get ready for 40GbE to your TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2

The TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2 offers four inbuilt Gigabit Ethernet ports and features two inbuilt 10GbE SFP+ ports to deliver 10 Gigabit high speed network. If 10GbE is insufficient for some workloads, the TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2 supports Mellanox® ConnectX-3 Pro adapter cards with 10/40/56 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity to deliver the most cost-effective computing and storage Ethernet Interconnection solution. It helps achieve significantly higher throughput for high-performance embedded I/O applications and virtualization acceleration. Businesses can greatly benefit from the fast, flexible storage network of the 40GbE-expandable TVS-EC2480U-SAS-RP R2 for boosting their mission-critical IT performance.
