5.8 Energy Smart Enablement

The 11G family of PowerEdge servers implements aspects of the Dell Energy Smart strategy. This
strategy offers the following:

Energy Smart components on a portfolio level, such as high-capacity and Energy Smart power

supplies

Systems with either a lowest power footprint configuration or a best performance per watt

configuration

Energy Smart components (such as DIMMs or hard drives) selected without cherry picking or

screening individual manufacturer’s components based on energy consumption

5.9 ENERGY STAR Compliance

5.10 Acoustics

The acoustical design of the PowerEdge T610 reflects adherence to Dell’s high sound quality
standards. Sound quality is different from sound power level and sound pressure level in that it
describes how humans respond to annoyances in sound, like whistles, hums, etc. One of the sound
quality metrics in the Dell specification is prominence ratio of a tone as shown in Table 7 and
Table 8.
