PowerEdge R470

Unprecedented Single-Socket Server with Optimized Power and Balanced Performance

 

Boost Datacenter Efficiencies and Performance

The Dell PowerEdge R470 is a 1U, single-socket rack server engineered for high-performance computing with optimal power efficiency and balanced performance, driving cost savings and boosting data center productivity. Its advanced design maximizes rack utilization by offering more cores in a single socket enabling better performance in a smaller footprint while minimizing energy consumption. This makes it ideal for workloads like cloud scale web and app microservices, data services, virtualization, and scale-out database.

 

Purpose-built for enterprise and scalable infrastructures, the PowerEdge R470 seamlessly integrates into existing environments. Equipped with an Intel® Xeon® processor with E-cores that are tailored for energy efficiency and performance-per-watt, offering both improved power efficiency and higher rack density. With GPU support, it further enhances computational power while reducing overall operational costs, especially on energy consumption impact.

 

The server is available in rear I/O hot aisle and front I/O cold aisle configurations, with the front I/O cold aisle improving serviceability, reducing maintenance time, and enhancing overall efficiency, reliability, and uptime. Dell’s Smart Power and Cooling Technology, optimized for air cooling, significantly reduces energy consumption, delivering long-term operational savings and supporting sustainability goals.

 

Cyber Resilient Architecture for Zero Trust IT environment & operations

Security is integrated into every phase of the PowerEdge lifecycle, including protected supply chain and factory- to-site integrity assurance. The Silicon-based root of trust anchors end-to-end boot resilience while Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) and role-based access controls safeguard trusted operations.
