PowerEdge FM120x4
Packing four single-socket microservers on one half-width sled, the Dell PowerEdge
FM120x4 provides low-cost, power-optimized density with enterprise-class systems
management.
The PowerEdge FM120x4 microserver, featuring the
low-power Intel® Atom™ processor C2000 product
family and ultra-dense system-on-a-chip (SoC)
design, is ideal for large-scale static web hosting and
lighter weight processing, like batch data analytics.

Innovative design
Each FM120 microserver is powered by a single Intel
Atom processor C2000 with up to eight cores, two
DIMMs of memory, one 2.5-inch front-access hard
drive or two 1.8-inch SSDs, and an integrated 1GbE
NIC on the SoC. PCIe connectivity is not supported
for the FM120x4. The compact design of the C2000
allows the FM120x4 sled to hold four microservers.
A fully loaded FX2 chassis can hold 16, offering
impressive density. Using eight-core processors,
128 cores and 32 DIMMs of memory can be
utilized in a single 2U FX2 chassis. The low-power
characteristics of the C2000 enable the FM120x4 to
comply with Dell Fresh Air 2.0 requirements, letting you
save on energy and cooling costs for your data center.

The efficiencies of shared infrastructure
FM120x4 server blocks are housed in the
Dell PowerEdge FX2 chassis — a 2U rack-based
hybrid computing platform that delivers the density
of a blade architecture with the simplicity and cost
benefits of rack-based systems — all in a compact
modular design.
With shared power, cooling and networking, the FX2
delivers efficiency and flexibility for data center infrastructures. Simply and efficiently add resources to
your infrastructure, when and where you need them.
Add to the chassis at the single-server level or add
one or more fully loaded 2U enclosures.

Comprehensive systems management
with intelligent automation
The Dell OpenManage systems management
portfolio simplifies and automates server lifecycle
management — making IT operations more efficient
and Dell servers the most productive, reliable and
cost effective. Dell’s agent-free integrated Dell
Remote Access Controller (iDRAC) with Lifecycle
Controller makes server deployment, configuration
and updates automated and efficient. Using Chassis
Management Controller (CMC), an embedded
component that is part of every FX2 chassis, you’ll
have the choice of managing FM120x4 microservers
individually or collectively via a browser-based interface.
OpenManage Essentials provides enterprise-level
monitoring and control of Dell and third-party
data center hardware, and works with OpenManage Mobile to provide similar information on smart
phones. OpenManage Essentials now also delivers
server configuration management capabilities that
automate bare-metal server and OS deployments,
replication of configurations, and ensures ongoing
compliance with set system configurations.
