2 System Description
The SR2100 system consists of the following major components:
• The chassis and its subassemblies, device bays, and front bezel
• The power supply
• The cooling system
To complete the system you must add a server board and optional peripherals and devices. The
following subsections take you on a tour of each of these components.
Chassis
The major component of the kit is the chassis, which comes pre-assembled with the exception of
the server board and optional peripherals. Before adding these devices, it is important to become
familiar with the chassis both externally and internally and the security features it provides.
✏NOTE
The following sections provide a high-level overview of the chassis. For a
more detailed, technical description, contact your Intel representative about
how to receive or gain access to the Intel®SR2100 KDK Server Chassis
Technical Product Specification.

System Description 13
Power Supply
The power supply consists of the power supply bay and one power supply module. You can
purchase and install an optional second module and have a redundant, 1+1 system. Either way, the
supply provides 275-watts of power and is designed to minimize EMI. The supply operates within
the following voltage ranges and is rated as follows:
• 100-120 V∼at 50/60 Hertz (Hz); 5.0 A maximum
• 200-240 V∼at 50/60 Hz; 2.5 A maximum
The DC output voltages of the power supply are +3.3 V, +5 V, +12 V, -12 V, and +5 V standby.
The power supply features a 24-pin main power connector and a 10-pin power supply signal
connector.
System Cooling
The chassis includes two system fans for cooling and airflow. Both fans provide cooling for the
processor(s), hard drives, and add-in cards. The power supply contains its own built-in fan for
cooling. As shown in Figure 3, two 80mm fans are located in the middle of the chassis to pull
cooling air through the chassis.
Security
To help prevent unauthorized entry or use of the system, the chassis includes a mechanical lock on
the front bezel to prevent access to the system’s peripherals and control panel. The chassis also
includes an intrusion switch that can be monitored by server management software. When the top
cover is opened, the switch transmits a signal to the server board, where server management
software processes the signal. For example, the system can be programmed to respond to an
intrusion by powering down or by locking the keyboard.

14 Intel SR2100 Chassis Subassembly Product Guide
Optional Peripherals
The chassis provides for a variety of peripherals that can be added to the system. The following
describes the available options.
Hot Swappable Hard Disk Drives
The chassis provides a hot swap bay for the installation of up to four 3.5-inch SCSI hard drives. A
major feature of the hot swap bay is the backplane, which powers down a drive when a failure is
detected and reported to the SCSI bus. When a new drive is inserted, the power control waits a
short time for the drive to become fully seated and then applies power to the drive. The backplane
provides signals to the control panel to indicate failure status for each drive in the bay.
Either four 1-inch high or two 1-inch high and two 1.6-inch high, 3.5-inch SCA-compatible SCSI
hard drives can be installed in the bay. Drives can consume up to 17 watts of power each. Drives
must be specified to run at a maximum ambient temperature of 50 °C.
The chassis ships with four drive carriers for mounting the separately purchased hard drives. For
information on how to install these drives, refer to page 38.
Slim-line CD-ROM
The chassis provides a bay for installing a slim-line CD-ROM drive. For information on
installation, refer to page 40.
3.5-inch Drives
The chassis provides a bay for installing one of many types of 3.5-inch (i.e. non-hot swappable)
drives including a diskette drive, zip drive, tape drive, or an additional hard drive. The chassis
includes a drive tray for installing the device, which must be purchased separately. For information
on how to install a drive, refer to page 42.

3 Operating the System
Opening and Closing the Bezel
With the bezel open you have access to all of your system's front panel functions and indicators.
With the bezel closed you can protect critical functions and still view the system's indicators.
To open the bezel, do the following:
1. Stand in front of the chassis and grasp the edges of the bezel from each side.
2. Gently pull the bezel towards you until it begins to separate from the chassis.
3. As the bezel separates from the chassis, allow it to swing to its open position situated below the
chassis.
OM11055
Figure 4. Opening the Bezel
4. To close the bezel, gently raise it upwards. The hinging mechanism will guide the bezel into
the correct position where it will snap shut.

16 Intel SR2100 Chassis Subassembly Product Guide
Locking and Unlocking the Bezel
The bezel can be locked and unlocked to prevent unwanted access to the system.
To lock the bezel, insert the key into the lock. Turn the lock counterclockwise until it stops (about
a quarter turn). The bezel is now locked and cannot be opened.
To unlock the bezel, insert the key into the lock and turn the lock clockwise until it stops (about a
quarter turn). The bezel is now unlocked and can be opened again.
