Compact, power-saving and low-noise design - ETERNUS DX60/DX80
Reducing energy consumption during product use leads to operational cost reductions. This makes energy consumption an important factor when selecting any IT product.
ETERNUS2000, which started shipping in 2007, achieved compact design and power-savings by reducing its number of components by 60% compared with previous devices and this has been maintained in ETERNUS DX60/DX80.
ETERNUS DX60/DX80 further improves power supply module efficiency and optmizes cooling fan rotation. This has achieved a further 8% reduction in power consumption compared to ETERNUS2000.
In addition, ETERNUS DX60/DX80 developped using the latest state-of-the-art technologies offers a compact, light weigt and power-saving design that further reduces the environmental burden.
