Dell PowerEdge C4140 Technical Specifications

The Dell EMC PowerEdge C4140 is a high-density GPU-accelerated server designed by Dell EMC for intensive workloads requiring massive parallel processing capabilities. This model supports up to four double-width graphics processing units drawing 300 W each, compatible with either PCIe or SXM2 form factors, including NVIDIA Tesla P40, P100, and V100 variants with capacities up to 32 GB and NVLink support. Compute power is delivered via dual sockets for second-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors, offering up to 26 cores per processor, ensuring robust performance for data science and AI applications. The system chassis measures 482.4 mm by 434 mm with a depth of 43.1 mm, accommodating configurations weighing between 22.1 kg and 24 kg depending on the GPU topology.

To support demanding memory and storage requirements, the PowerEdge C4140 accommodates up to 1536 GB of RAM using LRDIMM or RDIMM modules, with options for 8 GB through 64 GB capacities per DIMM. Storage flexibility is provided by a BOSS PCIe card with mirrored M.2 SATA SSDs for boot, up to two internal NVMe/PCIe SSDs, and slots for additional NVMe add-in cards in positions one and three. Expansion capabilities include two PCIe generation 3 risers allowing for extensive peripheral integration, while power delivery is managed by redundant AC power supply units rated at either 2400 W Titanium or 2000 W Platinum efficiency, supporting 100 to 240 V autoranging input across a wide frequency range.

Dell EMC integrates systems management software within the PowerEdge C4140 to monitor critical components such as fan speeds and system health, with the configuration requiring eight cooling fans for thermal regulation under high loads. The server features four integrated Gigabit Ethernet ports, serial and VGA connectivity, USB 3.0 access, and runs on supported operating systems including Red Hat Enterprise Linux, VMware ESXi, Citrix XenServer, and Windows Server. This hardware addresses buyer needs for scalable infrastructure in virtualization clusters, machine learning environments, and compute-optimized data centers, providing the density and reliability necessary for enterprise deployment while adhering to strict environmental standards for operating temperature and air contamination control to ensure sustained performance in diverse data center facilities.
