The NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure Types 5456 chassis is a 6U next-generation server platform with integrated fan power control. It is a compact, high-density, high-performance, rack-mounted, scalable server platform system.
The NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure Types 5456 chassis has twelve node bays. A 1-bay compute node occupies one node bay in the chassis. A 2-bay storage tray or GPU tray occupies two node bays in the chassis. The nodes share common resources, such as power and cooling in the chassis.
The NeXtScale n1200 Enclosure can support the following components:
Compute node expansion capabilities
You can install up to twelve 1-bay compute nodes in the chassis. Some compute nodes have connectors for additional optional devices that you can use to add capabilities to the compute nodes.
High-availability design
Power supplies
The power supplies support a single power domain that provides power to all of the chassis components. If a power supply fails, the other power supplies can continue to provide power. The PSU Redundancy mode that you have applied for the chassis determines the result of a power-supply failure.
Fan modules
The fan modules provide cooling to all of the chassis components and the power supplies have their own fans to provide the cooling.
Fan power control
The fan power control enables the Integrated Management Module to monitor the fans and control fan speed.
Chassis midplane
The chassis midplane provides the following features:
