High Temperature and Humidity Operation

Increased reliability when server is installed in less environmentally controlled location

– RD550 and RD650 support operating in temperatures up to 45 ° C / 113° F with relative humidity up to 90%

– Continuous operation is supported – 24 hours/day, 365 days/year

Reduced operating expenses by reduction in amount of energy needed to cool

– Data center cooling costs can be greater than the cost of powering the IT equipment itself. One way to reduce these cooling costs is by operating the data center at a higher temperature
