This chapter provides an overview of the Cisco UCS C460 server features.
The Cisco UCS C460 server is a part of the Cisco UCS C-Series rack-mount server family. It is a high-performance, high-memory-capacity server designed with the performance and reliability to power compute-intensive, enterprise-critical standalone applications and virtualized workloads.It operates in a wide range of data center environments. These environments include the Cisco Unified Computing System, the Cisco Nexus switches, and discrete Ethernet and Fibre Channel switches from Cisco and third parties.
