The Colfax CX6000 Modular Server (MS) based on Intel® Xeon® Processor, is a business-in-a-box server system that helps growing businesses like yours dramatically simplify IT complexity. Colfax CX6000 MS puts the power of high-performance computing in your hands to drive new levels of productivity - all this within your budget.
A simple, flexible system that provides exceptional value
The Colfax CX6000 MS built on Intel® Multi-Flex Technology integrates storage, computing, and networking to simplify complex IT environments. It has the ability to support up to six Server Compute Modules and 14 SAS 2.5" hard disk drives, as well as two Ethernet Switch Modules, integrated SAN, and a Management Module. The CX6000 MS comes in a small footprint, plugs into a 100-240V power outlet and there is no need for messy or complicated wiring. As an integrated system, the CX6000 MS has capabilities not found in the common rack server setup, including virtual drives that provide grow-as-you-go flexibility and Virtual Presence management for simplicity. The CX6000 MS is a flexible and powerful solution for the small to midsize business (SMB).
Incredibly easy-to-manage
Today's SMB IT administrators are increasingly asked to do more with less. Being able to use time efficiently is not just a luxury-it is critical to providing the service levels expected. Having to manage a wide array of IT devices, each with different management tools and interfaces, can turn seemingly simple tasks into hours of struggle.
The CX6000 MS simplifies systems management for IT administrators, freeing them to spend more time on proactive maintenance and allowing them react quicker to unexpected events. It provides the convenience of an all-in-one, integrated system with easy-to-use point-and-click management. Compute, storage, and network resources are combined into one chassis, all managed by a highly intuitive and secure Web-based interface.
Real Life Benefits for Small to Medium-Sized Businesses
Reduced Complexity
A single system will reduce strain on IT resources. The simplification of servers, networking, and storage on a single chassis gives SMB IT administrators one less fire to fight.
Improved Flexibility
Manage your systems instead of letting them manage you. Reduce IT management complexity as well as cabling by having server, storage, and network all in one easy-to-use chassis.
Improved Uptime
As a SMB with a smaller IT infrastructure, you can't afford to have even one server down. The CX6000 MS provides redundancy beyond rack-mounted or pedestal servers with RAID capabilities and server failover to help increase availability.
Improved Data Protection
Centralized backup with snapshot capabilities enables easier archiving with increased backup sessions. In case of a failure, this enables you to minimize loss of critical data.
End-to-End Management
Intel's Virtual Presence technology allows you to see what hardware is physically deployed in the chassis, and do bare-metal discovery of networking, storage, and servers, all from a single Web-based interface. See the status of the system and all of its components just like you were standing in front of it with Virtual Presence technology.
Cost Effective
Spend less money than you would for individual components, but get far greater capabilities: up to six servers, SAS-based SAN, and a GigE switch bundled and pre-configured, plus Virtual Presence for comprehensive, easy-to-use management. And because it is all in a single chassis, save 20%-30% on cooling and power costs.
Improved Asset Utilization
Shared storage enables 100% utilization of all hard drives, so you don't waste money on under-used resources. Adding drives to scale your storage is a snap, with the Virtual Presence management interface. And the CX6000 chassis is designed for multiple generations of CPUs, so your servers are fully utilized.
Unique Serviceability
Servers, hard drives, fans, and power supplies are hot swappable with no tools required. As well, the CX6000's system management tools enable remote, out-of-band management from any location.
Grows as Your Business Grows
Complete separation of storage from servers lets you increase your storage and your compute capabilities at separate rates. Buy more storage and more processing power when you need it, but not before.
