Sun Fire V480 Server
Sun Fire V480 Server
System Overview

At the time of its introduction, the Sun Fire V480 server was positioned at the high-end of Sun's powerful line of rack-optimized, entry-level servers. The Sun Fire V480 server features two or four 900 MHz, 1.05 GHz, or 1.2 GHz UltraSPARC III Cu processors, up to 32 GB of memory, two hot-plug FC-AL disks, two hot-swappable (N+1) power supplies, dual integrated 10/100/1000-Mbps Ethernet, 6 PCI slots, and Remote System Control in a 5RU, 24-inch deep, rack-optimized chassis.

The V480 was EOL'd (end of lifed) in December of 2005, and replaced by the Sun Fire V490.

Sun has an excellent free-to-the-public field engineer's handbook called Sunsolve. The handbook pages for the V480 can be viewed by clicking here.
