PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Cisco® Media Convergence Server 7825-I1 (MCS 7825-I1) is a powerful platform for Cisco IP Communications applications. The Cisco MCS 7825-I1 occupies only 1 rack unit (RU) while providing the features most requested in a server platform at a very economical price point. (Refer to Figure 1.)
• Intel Pentium 4 3.4 GHz processor, an 800 MHz front side bus (FSB), and 1MB of Layer 2 cache
• Cisco IPCC Express (Integrated Contact Distribution [ICD])
• Cisco IP Interactive Voice Response (IP IVR)
• Cisco Personal Assistant-Up to 2500 users per server
• Cisco Queue Manager
• Cisco Unity Unified Messaging-Up to 24 ports and 1000 mailboxes
PRIMARY FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Performance
The Cisco MCS 7825-I1 is a robust, highly available server platform designed to support today's IP Communications applications. It uses a single Intel Pentium 4 3.4 GHz processor with an 800 MHz FSB.
Memory
The Cisco MCS 7825-I1 supports up to 4 GB of DDR memory. The increased processor performance coupled with DDR memory allows customers to retrieve and process information faster and more efficiently. DDR memory executes twice the number of operations per cycle than traditional SDRAM memory, effectively doubling the data exchange rate between memory and processors.
Variable-Speed Fan Support
The Cisco MCS 7825-I1 includes variable-speed fans to reduce operating noise. Through the use of temperature sensors within the server, the speed of the fans is adjusted to maintain the proper cooling. This reduces the noise generated by the fans by operating them only when required and at a speed based upon the cooling requirements.
SATA and Integrated RAID
The Cisco MCS 7825-I1 server supports enhanced serviceability through integrated RAID level 1 and front-accessible, simple-swap SATA hard-disk drives. If a hard drive fails, user data is preserved on the mirrored drive, and system administrators can easily replace the failing drive without removing the server from the rack. This reduces downtime and provides data reliability in a compact, highly cost-effective server.
System Error LEDs
The Cisco MCS 7825-I1 provides a system error LED and system locator LED on the front of the server to make pinpointing system issues easier than ever. When a system error occurs, this indication is made on the front panel of the Cisco MCS 7825-I1. If no failures have occurred, the system error LED is not lit.
DAT Tape Drive Support
The Cisco MCS 7825-I1 can support an optional 20 or 40 GB external digital-audio-tape (DAT) drive. This tape drive connects through a Small Computer System Interface (SCSI) cable to an external SCSI port. The external DAT drive is orderable (part number MCS-EXT-DAT) and a PCI-based SCSI card is orderable (part number MCS-EXT-SCSI) to provide the external SCSI port. DAT is only supported with Unity applications.
