Green PC technology-based ESPRIMO E and ESPRIMO P
New professional PCs from Fujitsu Siemens Computers:
environmentally friendly, exceptionally ergonomic and extremely
flexible
Munich/Germany, July 12, 2005 —Fujitsu Siemens Computers, the leading European IT
manufacturer and German market leader, today unveiled two additions
to its ESPRIMO professional PC range: the small form factor ESPRIMO
E5600 and the microtower ESPRIMO P5600. The new PCs are
manufactured in Augsburg, Germany, feature advanced AMD processor
technology and are exceptionally quiet and energy efficient. These
easily expandable modular systems come with the company’s
latest environmentally-conscious Green PC technology. The ESPRIMO
E5600 can be ordered as of now for prices starting at €749,
while the ESPRIMO P5600 is available as little as €599.
(Prices are valid in Germany and include VAT).
When it comes to personal computers, reliable technology,
expandability and ergonomics are of top importance to business
customers. Companies – regardless of size – also want
the best possible value for their money. The ESPRIMO E5600 and
ESPRIMO P5600 were designed with precisely these needs in mind.
Thanks to a flexible and modular system, they can be tailored to
individual customer requirements. The quiet and efficient AMD
processors are an ideal complement for the superb ergonomics of
ESPRIMO PCs. The upgrade possibilities, meanwhile, offer additional
investment protection.
“With our new AMD processor and SiS761 chipset-based
ESPRIMO PCs, we have broadened our portfolio of professional PCs
known for their top ‘made in Augsburg’ quality,”
Andreas Thimmel, Vice President Business Clients at Fujitsu Siemens
Computers said. “We fulfill the customer demands for a
diverse range of offerings with flexible modules and expansion
potential.”
“We worked very closely with Fujitsu Siemens Computers,
one of Europe’s premier OEMs, to bring a solution to market
that suits the specific needs of business users in
enterprises,” said Giuliano Meroni, corporate vice president,
Microprocessor Solutions Sector, AMD. “AMD64 technology
provides performance, scalability, reliability and security
professional users are looking for. AMD’s
Cool’n’Quiet™ technology complements Fujitsu
Siemens Computers’ efforts in providing solutions that
preserve natural resources by significantly reducing the energy
consumption of office PCs.”
ESPRIMO E 5600
The small form factor ESPRIMO E was developed as a standard
desktop for demanding applications in office networks. The
innovative cooling concept has been advanced even further, making
the ESPRIMO E the quietest PC in its class, while the energy-saving
AMD processor technology and switched monitor outlet drastically
reduce electricity usage.
Technical highlights:
SiS761 chipset with up to four DDR 400 MHz memory
slots
AMD Athlon 64 or Sempron processors
Improved expandability, allowing the 3.5-inch drive
to be used for:
a second hard disk drive
an internal SmartCard reader
a MultiCard reader
WLAN modules
Modular back panel (customer can choose between):
version A, with four low-profile expansion cards
version B, with two full-height PCI cards and one
low-profile PCI Express x16 graphics card
Optional dual-channel memory
PCI Express x16 slots
Optional second serial interface via cable
Switched monitor outlet, meaning the PC
automatically controls the monitor power supply
Standard front audio and front USB (2x) ports
Configurable security features (SmartCard reader,
intrusion switch, lock)
Extremely quiet (24dB under high system load) due to
enhanced cooling concept
ESPRIMO P 5600
The exceptionally quiet and powerful ESPRIMO P microtower was
designed for standard PC applications at SMEs as well as large
enterprises.
Technical highlights:
SiS761 chipset with up to four DDR 400 MHz memory
slots
AMD Athlon 64 or Sempron processors
Improved expandability, allowing the 3.5-inch drive
to be used for:
o an internal SmartCard reader
o a MultiCard reader
o WLAN modules, etc.
Standard front audio and front USB (2x) ports
Configurable security features (SmartCard reader,
intrusion switch, lock)
Optional dual-channel memory
PCI Express x16 slots

ESPRIMO Professional PCs from Fujitsu Siemens Computers
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 is halogen-free. 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.
The modular system allows customers to choose between
standard PCs, special features such as enhanced security and
performance, and long-availability configurations. The improved
cabinet design means there are more options when it comes to
servicing and upgrading ESPRIMO models, while the ManageIT and
SecureIT software suites ensure secure and trouble-free operation.
