P9D-E/4L is the flagship model of ASUS latest UP Denlow serverboards. The board is perfectly designed with powerful I/O expandability and digital power solution increasing VR power efficiency up to 94%. The versatile and highly reliable P9D-E/4L is ideal for data center front-end; firewall; gateway; storage; SMB print/ file/ mail/ exchange server; and more.
The Most Scalable Pci-E Expandability; Advanced I/O Technology
The ASUS P9D-E/4L provides industrial leading 3 PCI Express 3.0 x8 slots and one ASUS PIKE support. Along with the ASUS technology; this board presents the most powerful PCI-E expandability ever in UP server boards.
The P9D-E/4L server board is built to support up to 4 USB 3.0 ports. Built to connect easily with next generation components and peripherals; USB 3.0 transfers data 10X faster and is also backward compatible with USB 2.0.
Design To Support Legacy Pci Device Applications
Besides the latest PCI-E technology; P9D-E/4L keeps the legacy PCI slots on board which can fulfill various customers' requirements. Customers can move their existing legacy PCI add-on cards to P9D-E/4L; and still benefit from up-to-date Intel Xeon E3-1200 v3 Processor Family and DDR3 memory technology to their solutions.
High Power Efficiency With Premium Components And Digital Power Control
ASUS-exclusive Beat Thermal Chokes and new Dr. MOS (MOSFETs) improve the voltage regulator (VR) power efficiency. The Beat Thermal Chokes handle the pressure with ease; as a unique fin design results in around 4 degreeC lower choke temperatures for added stability; which is increased exponentially by use of highly conductive and efficient gold-treated coating. This translates into minimal-loss power delivery. Besides; with proven stable circuit integrated; Dr. MOS optimizes switching performance.
Digital CPU power controls work perfectly together to match digital power signal (SVID) requests from the CPU; with ultra-fast sensing and response efficiently delivering precision power. Accurate delivery reduces waste; and provides more stable voltage.
The benefits from these components significantly increase P9D-E/4L VR power efficiency up to 94%.
Quad Intel I210AT Gigabit Ethernet
The ASUS P9D-E/4L ships with quad server-class Intel Ethernet ports with the I210AT controllers; which doubles queues compared to previous-generation Intel 82574L controllers. This is better for virtualization applications. In addition; the quad LAN teaming ports provide high networking bandwidth with load balance and fault tolerance functions. This design greatly reduces data processing bottlenecks during network traffic.
Comprehensive server management: ASMB7-iKVM and ASWM Enterprise
The ASMB7-iKVM upgrade kit enables dashboard system health monitoring; remote power on/off and control; virtual media over LAN; and management LAN fail-over support. In addition; the ASMB7 function is based on BIOS-level access; so even if the server's operating system is down or offline; the KVM module can still provide round-the-clock remote monitoring and diagnosis through a user-friendly web-based graphical interface via all major browsers. ASWM Enterprise software provides one-to-multiple centralized management; including BIOS flash; remote control; and power control; all through a colorful and informative graphical interface.
SATA DOM (Disk on Module) ready
A SATA DOM is a flash drive simulating a hard disc which can be used without additional software or drivers. It is particularly helpful within embedded computing systems or thin clients. ASUS-exclusive design adds an onboard 4-pin power connector and USB header to make SATA DOM installation simple and easy.
Friendly Design for front I/O; front VGA
An accessible rear power button is reserved onboard for use as front panel ports when reversing the serverboard. An extra 15-pin VGA header features front-panel monitor connectivity; helping customers with greater flexibility. These designs provide flexible I/O integration for users to fit in various computing environments.
