1242R - Dell PowerEdge 4400 Raid Battery Pack

Description

The Dell 1242R is a 6-volt, 1500mAh Nickel-Metal Hydride (NiMH) battery specifically designed for use within the Dell PowerEdge 4400 server. In server environments, certain components, such as RAID controllers or real-time clocks, often require a dedicated backup power source to maintain their state and functionality during power outages or system reboots. This NiMH battery serves precisely that purpose. Its 1500mAh capacity and 6V output are tailored to meet the specific power requirements of the intended components within the PowerEdge 4400. NiMH technology offers a good combination of energy density and operational stability for such backup applications. The battery is built to withstand the thermal conditions typically found within a server chassis and is designed for a reliable service life. By providing a consistent backup power source, the Dell 1242R ensures the integrity of data stored on RAID arrays (by maintaining controller cache memory) and the accuracy of system timekeeping. This is crucial for maintaining data consistency and simplifying system management. The 1242R is an essential, though often overlooked, component for the reliable operation of the Dell PowerEdge 4400 server.
