1U servers provide some of the highest density computing resources in data centers and server rooms around the world. They are particularly useful in colocation scenarios, where the customer might pay by the rack unit so every ‘U’ saved can significantly lower IT service costs. Web hosting, application hosting and cloud service providers are among the users of these compact but powerful computers. A leading maker of high-performance computers, supercomputers and servers is using Artesyn’s CSU550 CRPS AC-DC power supply in its latest 1U server. The industry-standard CRPS form factor already provides a compact footprint compared to previous generation, similar-rated power supplies, but Artesyn’s CSU series takes this to another level with an innovative, high-density shorter design than competing server power supplies. When you only have 1U of space to work with, every cubic centimetre counts, so a fully-featured power supply that takes up less space while remaining cost-effective for the application gives the OEM server designer more to work with.

LEDs are replacing other lighting technologies in almost all applications from automotive to street lighting, horticultural to retail, and residential to industrial. A maker of innovative LED lights for industrial applications has selected Artesyn’s LCC600 series fanless and IP65-rated AC-DC power supply for its new ruggedized high power luminaire, which uses a patented cooling method to optimise efficiency of the light fixture. Starting with a power supply that already meets the EN61347-2-13 lighting industry standard and ENEC high quality European mark made it much easier for the customer to secure safety approval for their lighting fixture. Artesyn’s ability to rapidly modify the standard product to suit the customers exact needs, including constant current mode and a small output voltage adjustment, combined with outstanding technical support made this bright idea an easy decision for this customer. 

Deep packet inspection (DPI) is an advanced method of examining and managing network traffic. It is a form of packet filtering that locates, identifies, classifies, reroutes or blocks packets with specific data or code payloads. DPI servers examine the contents of packets passing through a given checkpoint and make real-time decisions based on rules assigned by an enterprise, internet service provider (ISP) or network manager, depending on what a packet contains. DPI servers are deployed to provide network security and quality-of-service. An innovative provider of DPI servers has selected Artesyn’s CSU550 AC-DC CRPS power supply as it develops a complete turnkey solution for network security. Artesyn’s long history of developing high quality server power supplies, with a long list of tier one customers, gave this DPI server manufacturer confidence in their selection.

Advertising is big business and billboards are no longer simply huge posters. They can now display real time video content, helping retailers drive sales and communicate more effectively.  A leader in the provision of these screens required a power supply which would enable its screens to run efficiently, for a long time, with minimal maintenance, at both indoor and outdoor locations. Artesyn was able to offer a combination of the LCC600 and LCC250 power supplies as the perfect solution. These models are ideal for outdoor screens as the robust enclosures are resistant to dust and moisture. They are equally suitable for indoor applications as the absence of cooling fans can help minimize dust and noise. The PMBus communication interface facilitates remote set-up and monitoring, making them easy to integrate into the end application.

A manufacturer of in-vitro devices (IVD) has selected Artesyn’s LCM600 AC-DC power supply for its next generation fully automated immunoassay analyzer with the aim of making the latest medical advancements more cost-effective for the world’s laboratories.

Immunoassays are biochemical tests which measure the presence or concentration of a substance, including blood analysis, providing information for diagnostic, monitoring or compatibility purposes.

Artesyn’s medically-approved* LCM600 provides a reliable, high-quality power supply at a reasonable price. The result is a high performing blood analyzer with a throughput of up to 500 tests per hour with the first report available in just 30 minutes and an intuitive, simple design. 

* Models tested according to the medical standard IEC 60601-1-2 4th Edition.
