The Sun Blade T6340 server module can help you meet growing needs for more performance and energy efficiency, as well as faster scaling and greater flexibility. Ideal for virtualization and powered with UltraSPARC T2 processors, the system enables maximum compute density in Sun Blade 6000 and 6048 modular systems - a superior platform for consolidation and for massively scalable, robust, and efficient Internet services infrastructures. This server module can help you speed services onto the market for a competitive edge, or expand with increasing demand.The two-socket Sun Blade T6340 server module delivers compute power previously available only from midrange enterprise SMP servers, with up to 16 cores and 128 threads of CoolThreads technology processing performance. It also offers the industry's best memory capacity for blade servers, with 32 DIMM slots and a maximum capacity of 256 GB, as well as two hard disk drive slots for hot-pluggable 2.5-inch SAS and SATA drives. You can depend on the most advanced OS in the world, the Solaris 10 Operating System (OS), which is preinstalled. Its shared I/O is blazing fast, with up to 144Gbps to prevent bottlenecks, and it provides built-in encryption at wire speed without performance degradation.The system brings superior energy and cost efficiency to your datacenter with fast deployment. With ILOM and remote KVMS - available for the first time on a server leveraging chip multithreading (CMT) technology - management is streamlined and unified, making the Sun Blade T6340 server module extremely scalable as well. It also offers superior integrability, because the system is designed to coexist with Sun x64 and other CMT-based server modules in the same chassis. And the server comes ready with Solaris containers and LDoms technology, to enable faster and more reliable consolidation and virtualization in your IT infrastructure at no extra cost.
