Entry Server Chassis SC5299-E addresses the value server market with three power
factor correction (PFC) power supply unit (PSU) configurations:
SC5299UP – 420-W fixed PSU for single-processor server boards
SC5299DP – 550-W fixed PSU for dual-processor server boards
SC5299WS – 670-W fixed PSU for dual-processor workstation boards

The UP, DP and WS power supply configurations each include an Intel validated PSU with an
integrated cooling fan and one AC line input. The BRP power supply configuration includes (1 of
2) redundant Intel validated PSU with an integrated cooling fan and one AC line input.
The cooling sub-system in the Intel
®
Entry Server Chassis SC5299-E consists of one 120-mm
system fan and one power supply fan. A 92-mm drive bay fan is only included with the
SC5299WS configuration. A 92-mm drive bay fan is also included with the optional hot swap
drive bay mounting bracket kit.
A removable access cover provides entry to the interior of the chassis. The rear I/O panel
conforms to the Advanced Technology Extended (ATX) Specification, Revision 2.2. The chassis
supports six full-length expansion cards. There are two front USB port connections, and one
rear knock-out location for an optional rear mounted serial port. A control panel board designed
for Server Standards Infrastructure (SSI) Entry E-Bay (EEB) 3.61-compliant server boards is
also provided with the server chassis.
The Intel
®
Entry Server Chassis SC5299-E supports up to six hard drives in all three
configurations. Two 5.25-in, half-height drive bays are available for peripherals, such as
CD/DVD-ROM drives and tape drives. An optional hot-swap SAS non-expander/SAS expander
or SCSI drive bay kit provides an upgrade path to allow the Intel

SC5299-E to support up to six hot-swap drives. Refer to the Drive Cage Upgrade Kit Installation
Guide for the Intel

that support tool-less installation and removal of fans, fixed and hot swap hard drives, fixed and
hot swap drive bays, PCI cards, hot swap PSU modules, fixed PSU, floppy drives, and CD/DVD
