Exceptional Performance in a Compact Server
The Cisco UCS C220 M3 Rack Server delivers excellent performance and density over a wide range of business workloads, from web serving to distributed databases. It offers up to 512 GB of RAM, eight drives or SSDs, and two 1GE LAN interfaces built into the motherboard, delivering outstanding levels of density and performance in a compact package.
Building on the success of the Cisco UCS C200 M2 Rack Servers, the enterprise-class Cisco UCS C220 M3 server further extends the capabilities of the Cisco Unified Computing System portfolio in a 1-rack-unit (1RU) form factor. And with the addition of the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family, it delivers significant performance and efficiency gains.
10Gbps Unified Network FabricThe Cisco UCS C220 M3 interfaces with Cisco UCS using the Cisco UCS Virtual Interface Card (VIC 1225). VIC 1225 is a virtualization-optimized Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) PCI Express (PCIe) 2.0 x8 10Gbps adapter, designed for use with Cisco UCS C-Series Rack Servers.
Virtualization OptimizationCisco Data Center VM-FEX and Adapter-FEX technologies, I/O virtualization, and Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family features extend the network directly to virtual machines with increased security and efficiency.
Unified Management (When Integrated into Cisco Unified Computing System)Unified management results in maximum efficiency and flexibility: the entire solution can be managed as a single entity with Cisco UCS Manager. Service profiles and templates implement role- and policy-based management, enabling more effective use of skilled server, network, and storage administrators. Automated provisioning and increased business agility allow data center managers to provision applications in minutes rather than days. And virtual machines, and their security features and policies, can be moved from rack to rack or rack to blade or blade to blade.
Intel Xeon Processor E5-2600 Product FamilyWith the increased performance and reliability provided by the Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 product family, Cisco UCS C-Series servers offer an improved price-to-performance ratio, making Cisco UCS servers among the best values in the industry.
High-Capacity, Flexible Internal StorageFeaturing up to four LFF or eight SFF front-accessible, hot-swappable, SFF SAS, SATA, or SSD drives for local storage, the CISCO UCS C220 M3 rack-mount server provides redundancy options and ease of serviceability.
RAID 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, and 60 SupportA choice of RAID controllers provides data protection for up to eight SAS, SATA, or SSD drives in PCIe and mezzanine card form factors.
