Many edge computing locations are compact—in remote field cabinets, inside vehicles, and in small closets. Both the 1U PowerEdge XR11 and 2U PowerEdge XR12 deliver high-density single-socket performance in a short depth form factor (only 400mm) so they can fit where you need them to.

For maximum flexibility and serviceability, PowerEdge XR servers have reversible mounting options that allow access to I/O ports and power supplies from either the front or rear of the chassis.3 Moveable control panels also improve accessibility for your specific location.
An optional cable management arm keeps cabling organized and secure at the back or front of the server, with a unique design that allows technicians to service the hardware easily and change filters without needing to detach cables in the field.
