The Dell PowerEdge FX2/FX2s is a 2U enclosure that can support up to four half-width compute sleds, up to eight quarter-width compute sleds, up to two full-width compute sleds, or a mix of compute sled types. The PowerEdge FX2s enclosure also supports half-width storage sleds mapped to the compute sleds.. An uniquely small modular foundation for the PowerEdge FX architecture, an extremely flexible and efficient platform for building an IT infrastructure that precisely fits your computing needs.
What are expansion bus on Dell PowerEdge FX2 and FX2s? Expansion bus refers to the PCIe connections between the compute sleds and the PowerEdge FX2s enclosure. The expansion bus supports PCIe mezzanine cards that are installed in the compute sleds. PowerEdge FX2s has two PCIe switches that are integrated on the PCIe switchboard to connect the compute sleds to the eight low-profile PCIe.. PowerEdge FD332: ultimate dense direct-attached storage with unprecedented flexibility The FX2 chassis has two versions: PowerEdge FX2s: "switched" configuration supporting up to eight low-profile PCIe 3.0 expansion slots PowerEdge FX2: lower-cost "unswitched" configuration that does not ofer expansion slots.
