Dell OptiPlex 990 MT - User Manual

New exible design
The completely redesigned form factors are amongst the
smallest within their categories. The mini-tower, desktop
and small form factor chassis have been optimized to help
maximize desk space and ensure the systems integrate
seamlessly in virtually any oce environment. The Dell
OptiPlex 990 also shares the same visual identity as Op-
tiPlex 790 and 390 to oer a more consistent look across
the OptiPlex portfolio and two All-in-One stands enable
deployment as a single device with up to 24” displays. Ac-
cessibility and serviceability are easy thanks to the conve-
nient side-latch mechanism which makes access to key
system components for upgrades and services fast and
easy. The form-factor exibility has also been designed
with our planet in mind. The systems all have a minimum
of 10% post-consumed recycled plastic enclosure and
oer highly ecient power supplies options. Starting with

vides select brominated ame retardant free (BFR-free)
and polyvinyl chloride free (PVC-free) congurations
