Generic naming convention for Dell EMC PowerEdge servers
To cover a range of server models, the PowerEdge servers are now being referred to using the generic naming convention and
not their generation.
This topic explains how to identify the generation of a PowerEdge server that are referred to using the generic naming
convention.
Example:
The R740 server model is a rack, two processor system from the 14th generation of servers with Intel processors. In the
documentation, to refer to R740, generic naming convention YX4X server is used, where:
● The letter Y (alphabet) is used to denote the following server form factors:
○ C = Cloud - Modular server nodes for hyper-scale environments
○ F = Flexible - Hybrid rack-based sleds for rack-based FX2/FX2s enclosure
○ M or MX* = Modular - Blade servers for the modular enclosure MX7000, M1000e and/or VRTX
○ R = Rack-mountable servers
○ T = Tower Servers
● The letter X (digit) denotes the class (number of processors) of the server.
● The digit 4 denotes the generation of the server.
