313-4782 - Dell Remote Access Card DRAC 5 for PE 1900 1950 2900 2950 with Cables

Description

The Dell 313-4782 Remote Access Card is a crucial component for managing Dell PowerEdge 1950, 2900, and 2950 servers remotely. This card enables out-of-band management, meaning it operates independently of the server's main operating system and network connection. This allows administrators to perform critical tasks such as powering the server on or off, accessing the console, and troubleshooting issues even when the server is unresponsive or offline. This remote access card provides essential features like KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) over IP, which allows administrators to view the server's display and control it using their keyboard and mouse as if they were physically present. It also typically supports remote media redirection, enabling the use of local storage devices (like CD/DVD drives or ISO files) on the remote server for tasks such as operating system installation or software updates. The ability to remotely control power cycles is also a standard feature, vital for rebooting or troubleshooting. By equipping compatible PowerEdge servers with the 313-4782 card, organizations can significantly improve their IT operational efficiency. It reduces the need for physical intervention, minimizes downtime, and provides a secure and reliable method for managing server infrastructure, especially in environments with distributed or hard-to-reach hardware. This card is a standard for effective remote server administration in many enterprise settings.
