Exceptional Performance-per-Watt
The Colfax CX7400 Blade Server is built from the ground up to combat IT sprawl and complexity. The CX7400 is perfect for HPC applications with performance & density optimized to achieve 112 processing cores and 336GB DDR2 memory in 7U standard rack. This powerful blade system features 100-240VAC, ultra high-efficiency (93%), N+1 redundant power supplies, along with industry-leading density performance/watt and price/performance.

Best-of-Class Energy-Efficiency
With Colfax blade servers, you can help preserve not only our green planet, but save on energy bills. The CX7400 enclosure takes advantage of thermal design efficiencies, such as ultra-efficient power supplies (93%), dynamic power efficient fans with optimized airflow design to efficiently cool the chassis and enable better performance in a lower power envelope.

Benefits

Industry-leading performance/watt - best for HPC applications
Ultra-high power efficiency - energy savings
High performance, high availability, high density
Industry-leading price/performance
Low TCO - lower than rackmount server systems
Space Optimization
Housed within a 19" industry-standard rack, CX7400 servers reduce server footprint in the data center. Power, cooling and networking devices are aggregated in the rear of the chassis which optimizes the required amount of space.

Up to fourteen blade servers can be installed in a 7U chassis. Compared to the 14U of rack space that fourteen 1U servers would normally require as individual servers, the CX7400 provides about 100% density savings with 84 servers in a 42U rack.

Cable Reduction
The CX7400 server chassis enclosure greatly simplifies the cabling process by aggregating cabling of fourteen servers at once. Up to 90% of network, power, and KVM cabling required for fourteen 1U servers are reduced by moving to blade servers in a single chassis. These cabling reductions continue across networking, SAN connectivity, and management controllers.

Reducing the number of cables speeds up the deployment of servers and helps reduce troubleshooting issues by presenting fewer physical connections to the servers.
