Rack-Optimized with Great Efficiency andExpandability
RS500-E8-PS4 is a 1U rack server that delivers extreme computingpower, high memory and storage capacity, as well as highly-flexibleexpandability. Engineered with premium components throughout, RS500-E8-PS4 provides high dependability and exceptional efficiencylevels, making it ideal for datacenter deployment, and both smalland medium business applications.

High-efficiency cooling and lower power consumption
RS500-E8-PS4 internal layout is optimized for rack-mountedconfigurations, with optimized fan speed control and anadjustable-fan-curve feature. Advanced air-ducting technologyallows RS500-E8-PS4 to work at high operating temperature and withan 80 PLUS Gold power-supply unit (PSU) up to 94% VRefficiency!

2+1 expansion
RS500-E8-PS4 has high expandability with 2+1 expansion slots in aconfiguration: that means one PCI-E Gen3x16 slot, one PCI-E Gen3x8slot, plus one PCI-E Gen3x8 slot Mezzanine card for OCPapplications, such as the OCP 10Gbit/s LAN card. This flexibleexpansion offers diverse applications in storage and networking tomeeting the demands of future expansion.

Premium components for premium efficiency
RS500-E8-PS4 benefits from premium components hand-chosen andcarefully arranged by ASUS engineers to provide premium efficiency. With ASUS Beat Thermal Chokes, Dr. MOS and Single 600W 80PLUS GoldPower Supply, it delivers great durability and up to 94% powerefficiency. The Single 600W 80PLUS Gold Power Supply design allowsthe server to keep working even if one power supply requiresmaintenance, enabling uninterrupted operation. RS500-E8-PS4 hasdurable 12k solid capacitors that are able to withstand up to 12, 000 hours of high ambient temperatures. These 12K capacitors alsoboast lower equivalent series resistance (ESR) for increasedefficiency and minimal heat generation.

Instant Deployment
RS500-E8-PS4 includes a front-side VGA port, so youre able toconnect a display quickly and easily. RS500-E8-PS4 also benefitsfrom an exclusive tool-less rail kit design, easing deployment forsystems administrators for increased efficiency. The server alsocarries an asset tag for fast identification. RS500-E8-PS4 alsooffers great freedom when it comes to the choice of operatingsystem drive type and placement, with both M.2 slot for independentOS available.

Easy Diagnostic and Management
RS500-E8-PS4 has a built-in Q-Code/port 80 LED display LED forsimple monitoring of the entire boot process, from the earlyhardware-awakening stages to the launch of the operating system andbeyond. A bright CPU and Memory LED on board lets you check theservers status instantly. With the Intelligent Platform ManagementInterface (IPMI) 2.0-compliant ASMB8-iKVM module in RS500-E8-PS4, youll be able to monitor, control and manage the serverremotely.
