The new ESPRIMO E PCs: modular and ergonomic with Green PC
technology
Fujitsu Siemens Computers introduces the latest addition to
its environmentally conscious, flexible and investment-friendly
professional PCs
Munich/Germany, June 22, 2005 —Fujitsu Siemens Computers, the leading European IT
manufacturer and a pioneer in environmentally conscious PC
technology, today announced the availability of the latest addition
to its range of professional PCs. The extremely silent ESPRIMO E, a
Small Form Factor PC (SFF), comes with new manageability and
flexibility features as well as Fujitsu Siemens Computers’
innovative Green PC technology. The ESPRIMO E5905 is based on the
latest Intel® 945G Express Chipset, while the ESPRIMO E5901 is
also equipped with Intel® Active Management Technology.
ESPRIMO E Series models can now be obtained throughout the EMEA
region (Europe, Middle East and Africa). Prices in Germany start at
€849 (incl. VAT).
The Small Form factor PC ESPRIMO E was designed as standard
desktop for demanding office applications in large networks. It is
thus particularly well suited to organizations with 1,000-plus
employees, where factors like trouble-free operation in open-plan
offices and flexible expansion options are especially important
when purchasing PCs. With this in mind, Fujitsu Siemens Computers
equipped the ESPRIMO E Series with adaptable rear panels and
flexible slots; either for four low-profile cards or two
full-height PCI cards combined with one low-profile card. The
enhanced cooling concept means the new models are the quietest in
their class, and the switched monitor outlet system saves energy
since the PC automatically controls the monitor’s power
supply.
Technical highlights:
- Intel® Corporate Stable Platforms including new
Intel® 945G Express Chipset and Intel® Pentium® 4
Processors with hyper-threading technology. (Also available with
the new Intel® Pentium® D 82x sequence dual core
processors.)
- Optional with Intel® Active Management Technology
- Improved expandability, allowing the 3.5-inch drive to be
used for:
-- a second hard disk;
-- an internal SmartCard reader;
-- a MultiCard reader;
-- a WLAN module.
- Adaptable rear panel:
-- version A with four low-profile cards.
-- version B with two full-height PCI cards and one
low-profile PCI Express x16 card.
- Second serial port optional via cable.
- Standard front audio and front USB (2x) connectors.
- Configurable security features (SmartCard reader, intrusion
switch, lock).
- Enhanced cooling concept for extremely quiet operation
(24dB with heavy system load).
About the ESPRIMO product family
ESPRIMO professional PCs, manufactured in Augsburg, Germany,
deliver the latest in cutting-edge technology in an environmentally
conscious package. All three lines of the new ESPRIMO global brand,
which was announced together with Fujitsu Ltd. in April, have a
modular design for easy upgrading. The ESPRIMO P5905 Microtower has
been available since May as part of the Intel® Stable Image
Platform Program. The space-conscious Ultra-Small Form Factor
ESPRIMO C Series, meanwhile, will hit the market in July.
Modular system
Fujitsu Siemens Computers has been building upon the proven
strengths of its desktop PCs to offer a flexible configuration
system. Depending on their requirements, customers can choose
between standard PCs, special features such as enhanced security
and performance, and long term available configurations. In any
case, every system can flexibly be upgraded, and that means
additional investment protection.
Ergonomics and the environment
All professional PCs from Fujitsu Siemens Computers will
comply with RoHS six months before the stringent new set of EU
guidelines restricting the use of hazardous substances goes into
effect in mid-2006. Lead content in the mainboards has already been
reduced from around 12 grams to only one gram, and the printed
circuit board, power supply and riser card are all halogen-free. As
mentioned, ergonomics has also been enhanced. The advanced cooling
concept used in all ESPRIMO PCs makes them even quieter for a
better (and more productive) work environment.
Lifecycle management and serviceability
The improved cabinet design of the ESPRIMO Professional PCs
increases the possibilities when it comes to servicing and
upgrades, while the ManageIT and SecureIT software suites ensure
secure and trouble-free operation. What’s more, lifecycles of
up to 18 months are made possible by the stable configurations and
components as well as the Intel® Stable Image Platform
Program.
