6.1 Overview
The Intel ® Xeon ® processor 5500 and 5600 series 2S is the microprocessor designed specifically for
servers and workstation applications. The Intel Xeon processor 5500 series features quad-core
processing to maximize performance and performance/watt for data center infrastructures and
highly dense deployments. The Intel 5600 series features six-core processing, offering enhanced
system-level performance, virtualization, and energy efficiency. The Intel Xeon processor also
feature Intel’s Core™ micro-architecture and Intel 64 architecture for flexibility in 64-bit and 32-bit
applications and operating systems.
The Intel Xeon processor uses a 1366-contact Flip-Chip Land Grid Array (FC-LGA) package that plugs
into a surface mount socket. The PowerEdge T610 provides support for up to two processors.
