Feature Description Active power management Intel Node Manager is an embedded technology that provides individual server-level power reporting and power limiting functionality. Dell offers a complete power management solution comprised of Intel Node Manager accessed through Dell iDRAC7 Enterprise and OpenManage Power Center that allows policy-based management of power and thermals at the individual server, rack and data center level. Hot spare reduces power consumption of redundant power supplies. Thermal control of fan speed optimizes the thermal settings for your environment to reduce fan consumption and lower system power consumption. Fresh Air cooling Rack infrastructure Idle power enables Dell servers to run as efficiently when idle as when at full workload. With the thermal design and reliability of Dell products, you can have the capability to operate at excursion-based temperatures. This solution is comprised of servers, networking, storage, and infrastructure that run beyond the industry standard of 35°C (95°F) without impacting your availability model.

For information on the M1000e power supply units, see the PowerEdge M1000e Technical Guide on Dell.com. Optimized thermal management keeps fan speeds in the PowerEdge M620 as low as possible, contributing to quiet operation and ensuring proper component cooling. The thermal design of the PowerEdge M620 reflects the following:  Comprehensive thermal management: The PowerEdge M620 dynamically controls system cooling fan speed, based on responses from critical sensors that monitor the temperature of several components, including: - Processors - DIMMs - System inlet ambient - Mezzanine card - Network daughter card (NDC)

Description
Active power management
Intel Node Manager
is an embedded technology that provides individual
server-level power reporting and power limiting functionality. Dell offers a
complete power management solution comprised of Intel Node Manager
accessed through Dell iDRAC7 Enterprise and OpenManage Power Center
that allows policy-based management of power and thermals at the
individual server, rack and data center level.
Hot spare
reduces power consumption of redundant power supplies.
Thermal control of fan speed
optimizes the thermal settings for your
environment to reduce fan consumption and lower system power
consumption.
Idle power
enables Dell servers to run as efficiently when idle as when at full
workload.
Fresh Air cooling
With the thermal design and reliability of Dell products, you can have the
capability to operate at excursion-based temperatures. This solution is
comprised of servers, networking, storage, and infrastructure that run
beyond the industry standard of 35°C (95°F) without impacting your
availability model. Find additional information at
