Refrigerant Gas Cooling
The Sun Cooling Door 5600 System removes heat from the Sun Blade 6048 Modular System with a Liebert XD system infrastructure. Sun recommends that customers contact Sun Professional Services (or one of our partners) to determine the most appropriate cooling strategy and design a deployment.
Sun Blade 6048 Modular System Support
The Sun Cooling Door 5600 System is an excellent cooling solution for the Sun Constellation System, the world's first open petascale computing environment. The cooling door system attaches to the back of the Sun Blade 6048 Chassis, which runs up to 48 Sun Blade server modules (up to 1152 processing cores) per rack, for up to 11 teraflops of performance.
