Server Board S5500HV and Intel® Server System SR1670HV may contain design defects or errors known
Intel Corporation server boards contain a number of high-density VLSI and power delivery components that need
adequate airflow to cool. Intel’s own chassis are designed and tested to meet the intended thermal requirements of
these components when the fully integrated system is used together. It is the responsibility of the system integrator
that chooses not to use Intel developed server building blocks to consult vendor datasheets and operating parameters
to determine the amount of airflow required for their specific application and environmental conditions. Intel
Corporation cannot be held responsible if components fail or the server board does not operate correctly when used
outside any of their published operating or non-operating limits.

capability lets the processor take advantage of a 4-wide execution engine, effectively hiding the
latency of a single thread. However, the data residing in L1/L2 must be present in 3rd level
cache.
This is the most power efficient performance feature of the Intel
®
Xeon® Processor 5500 Series
and 5600 Series. It’s very efficient performance boost that comes at a very low die area cost.
Depending on the application, it can provide significant performance benefit and is much more
efficient than adding an entire core. It supports larger caches and provides for massive memory
bandwidth.

Turbo Boost availability is independent of the number of active cores
Max Turbo boost frequency is dependent on the number of active cores and varies by

Processor Population Rules
Note: Although the server board does support dual-processor configurations consisting of
different processors that meet the defined criteria below, Intel does not perform validation
testing of this configuation. For optimal system performance in dual-processor configurations,
Intel recommends that identical processors be installed.
When using a single processor configuration, the processor can be installed into either CPU1 or
CPU2 processor sockets.
When two processors are installed, the following population rules apply:
Both processors must have the same Intel
Both processors must have the same core frequency
Both processors must have the same internal cache sizes
Both processors must have the same Thermal Design Power (TDP - Watts) rating
Processor stepping within a common processor family can be mixed as long as it is

non-functional.
DIMMs are organized into physical slots on DDR3 memory channels that belong to
processor sockets.
The memory channels from processor socket 1 are identified as Channels A, B, and C.
The memory channels from processor socket 2 are identified as Channels D, E, and F.

The memory slots associated with a given processor are unavailable if the given
processor socket is not populated.
A processor may be installed without populating the associated memory slots provided a
second processor is installed with associated memory. In this case, the memory is
shared by the processors. However, this is not a recommended configuration due to the
associated latency which will affect performance.
Processor sockets are self-contained and autonomous. However, all memory subsystem
support (i.e., Memory RAS, Error Management, etc.) in the BIOS setup are applied
commonly across processor sockets.
3.2.1.1 Memory Population Rules
DIMM population requirements are dependent upon the number of slots per channel; the
number of DIMMs installed; and rank type. When installing memory consider the following:
Populate DIMMs by channel starting with the Blue slot farthest from the CPU
All channels in a system will run at the fastest common frequency
RDIMMs and UDIMMs may not be mixed
If two 1333 MHz capable UDIMMs or RDIMMs is detected in the same channel, BIOS
will flag this as a warning and force the speed down to 1066 MHz.

With two processors installed, the system will operate if only the DIMM slots of one processor
are populated. In this case, memory is shared between the two processors. However, due to the
associated latency of this configuration, this is NOT a recommended operating mode.
3.2.1.2 Memory RAS Modes
The server board supports the following memory RAS Modes:
Independent Channel Mode
Mirrored Channel Mode
Mirrored Channel Mode requires that all installed DIMMs support ECC and that there be
matching DIMM populations between channels. Matching DIMMs must meet the following
criteria: DIMM size, DIMM organization (rank, banks, rows, columns). DIMM timings do not have
to match, however, timings will be set to support all DIMMs populated.
Independent channel mode is the only memory RAS mode that supports either non-ECC or
ECC DIMMs.
Independent Channel Mode
In the Channel Independent mode, channels can be populated in any order (e.g., channels B
and C can be populated while channel A is empty). All three channels may be populated in any
order and have no matching requirements. All channels must run at the same interface
frequency, but individual channels may run at different DIMM timings (RAS latency, CAS
latency, and so on).
The single channel mode is established using the Channel Independent mode by populating
DIMM slots from channel A only.

Mirrored Channel Mode
In Mirrored Channel Mode, the memory controller supports mirroring across channels, but not
across CPU sockets. The contents are mirrored between the first 2 channels of a given
processor. For CPU1, mirrored slot pairs include {A1, B1} and {A2, B2}. For CPU2, the mirrored
slot pairs include {D1, E1} and {D2, E2}. The sockets of the 3rd channel of each CPU are not
used in this mode.

Figure 10. Mirror Channel Mode Memory Population
Mirrored channel mode requires the following memory population rules:
Channel 0 and Channel 1 of a given processor must be populated identically.
DIMM slot populations within a channel do not have to be identical, but the same DIMM
slot location across Channel 0 and Channel 1 must be populated the same.
For example; DIMM slots A1 and B1 must have identical DIMMs installed to be
mirrored together. DIMM slots A2 and B2 must have identical DIMMs installed to be
mirrored together. However the DIMMs used in mirrored pair {A1, B1} can be
different than those used in mirrored pair {A2, B2}.
With two processors installed, DIMM slots associated with each processor must have a
valid mirroring configuration for memory channels 0 and 1. However, the memory
configuration of each processor can be different from the other.
The exception to this rule is that one processor has no memory installed. Because of
the associated latency, this is NOT a recommended operating mode.

Pin 1 – GND
Pin 2 – Fan Power
Pin 3 – Fan Speed
Pin 4 – PWM Control
The fan speed for all the system fans is controlled by a single pulse width modulator (PWM) and
monitored by the BMC. BIOS setup provides two fan speed options: Full Speed Mode & High
Density Mode.
In Full Speed Mode, system fans will only operate at highest fan speed, providing maximum air
flow.
In High Density Mode, fan speed is controlled, allowing for a quieter system. At nominal CPU
temperatures, the fan speeds will operate at 50% of maximum. As CPU temperatures rise, the
fan speeds will gradually increase to a maximum 100%. As CPU temperatures fall, fan speeds
will automatically readjust to a lower speed.
4.2 On-board/System Sensor Information
The server board includes many on-board sensors which are monitored by the BMC for various
server management functions.

Platform Management Intel® Server Board S5500HV/Intel® Server System SR1670HV TPS
The following tables list the sensor identification numbers and information about the sensor
type, name, supported thresholds, assertion and de-assertion information. See the Intelligent
Platform Management Interface Specification, Version 2.0, for sensor and event/reading-type
table information.
Sensor Type
The Sensor Type values are the values enumerated in the Sensor Type Codes table in
the IPMI specification. The Sensor Type provides the context in which to interpret the
sensor, such as the physical entity or characteristic that is represented by this sensor.
Event/Reading Type
The Event/Reading Type values are from the Event/Reading Type Code Ranges and
Generic Event/Reading Type Codes tables in the IPMI specification. Digital sensors are
a specific type of discrete sensor, which have only two states.
Event Offset/Triggers
Event Thresholds are event-generating thresholds for threshold types of sensors.
- [u,l][nr,c,nc]: upper non-recoverable, upper critical, upper non-critical, lower non-
recoverable, lower critical, lower non-critical
- uc, lc: upper critical, lower critical
Event Triggers are supported event-generating offsets for discrete type sensors. The
offsets can be found in the Generic Event/Reading Type Codes or Sensor Type Codes
tables in the IPMI specification, depending on whether the sensor event/reading type is
generic or a sensor-specific response.
MLED
The MLED column indicates whether a particular sensor reading will trigger the Message
LED located on the system front panel to illuminate or not.

Server Node 2
The system provides no redundant fan support. To prevent the system from over heating, a
failed fan should be replaced as soon as possible.
Figure 44. System Fan Removal
Each bank of fans is monitored and controlled by the server node to which they are attached.
Fan control is determined by selecting either of two fan control options in BIOS Setup: Full
Speed mode or High Density mode.
In Full Speed Mode, system fans will only operate at the highest fan speed, allowing for
maximum air flow.
In High Density Mode, fan speed is controlled, allowing for a quieter system. At nominal CPU
temperatures, the fan speeds will operate at 50% of maximum. As CPU temperatures rise, the

Appendix A: Product Usage Tips
When adding or removing components or peripherals from the server board, AC power
must be removed. With AC power plugged into the server board, 5-Volt standby is still
present even though the server board is powered off.
Each time AC power is applied to the server, the Blue System ID LED will turn on, the
power button will be disabled, and a delay of 30-45 seconds will occur before the system
is able to power on. This delay is needed to reset the BMC controller on the BMC
Management Module. Once the BMC reset has completed, the System ID LED will turn
off, and the power button will be re-enabled allowing for the system to be powered on.

configuration (DIMM sockets A1, B1, C1, D1, E1, and F1) performs better than a threeDIMM configuration (DIMM sockets A1, B1, and C1).
Due to thermal requirements needed to support Quad Rank x4 DDR3 DIMMs, this
memory type is not supported in the Intel
®
Server System SR1670HV. Support for this
memory type should be verified with other server chassis/system manufacturers
planning to support this server board.
Memory is only populated using DIMM slots associated with a given installed processor.
Ie.) With only one processor installed, only the DIMM slots associated with that
processor should be populated. Memory installed into DIMM slots for a processor that is
not installed are non-functional.
The Management NIC port is only enabled with the BMC Module installed on to the
server board. With no BMC module installed, the Management NIC port, located above
the rear external USB ports, will be non-functional.
