Deliver Energy Efficiency with Intel® Server System SR1690WB
or Intel® Server Board S5500WB
Utilizing high-efficiency voltage regulators and an optimized
design, the Intel® Server Board S5500WB delivers
uncompromising performance with up to 30% power
reductions compared to other solutions and savings up
to $224 over the life of the server.¹
The Intel® SR1690WB Server System supports four 3.5”
drives, a high-efficiency power supply, a PCI Express* x8
(Gen 2) slot, and support for Intel® I/O Expansion Modules.

Wall Power ( Watts)
Intel® Server Board S5500WB
Intel® Server Board S5520UR
An optimized system built around the Intel® Server Board S5500WB saves 32W at the wall
over a typical 1U server such as the Intel® Server System SR1600UR. This equates to total
data center power savings of 64W (in a typical data center with PUE of 2.0)² Over a four
year life, with electricity cost of $0.10 per KWh, that would amount to over $224 in power
costs saving for each server deployed.³
1 Power benchmark data from SPECpower_ssj2008. http://www.spec.org/specpower/ Measurements were taken on pre-
production systems (January 2009) that were configured with identical memory, processors and hard disk drive, operating
system and JVM. Variables were fan configuration, cooling duct design, fan speed control and power wattage and supply
efficiency rating.
2 PUE = Power Usage Effectiveness. A PUE of 2.0 means that for every 2 watts in at the utility meter, only one watt is
delivered out to the IT load (the server in this case). PUE ratio of 2.0 is the average value across all U.S. data centers.

3 Calculation backup: 32W x 3 years x 365 days x 24 hours/1000 = 1,121 Kilo Watt Hours (KWh). At a PUE of 2.0, that

becomes 2,241 KWh x $0.10/ KWh = $224.
