The ASUS RS300-E7/RS4 is a 1U rack-mount server based on new generation 

Intel® Xeon® Ivy Bridge processor, providing immediate performance up-scaling, 

high expandability and upgradability. It also features quad LAN networking, 1+1 

redundant 80 PLUS Gold power supplies, and remote management, offering 

customers assured quality of service with ultimate networking security, outstanding

deliver superior cooling for more stable computing without blocking or restricting 

expansion slots. 

The RS300-E7/RS4 provides 2+1 expansion slots in a 1U chassis for higher 

expandability. Two PCI Express slots support full-height/half-length cards, with a 

dedicated slot designed for optional ASUS PIKE RAID cards with no additional 

verification needed. 

Built with quad Intel® Gigabit LAN controllers with teaming capabilities, the 

RS300-E7/RS4 provides higher bandwidth and improves virtualization performance 

with more networking resources. Quad LAN also improves load balance for 

far more reliable connections, offering the ultimate in network security and 

virtualization. 

Maintaining the ASUS commitment to environmental protection, the RS300-E7/

RS4 utilizes 1+1 redundant 450W 80 PLUS Gold power supplies to reduce power 

loss and consumption. As such, it lowers power bills to save users money with up 

to 92% power efficiency. 

The optional web-based, GUI-driven ASMB5-iKVM upgrade kit provides integrated 

control of server functions with dedicated hotkeys and remote on-screen server 

management. Virtual media-over-LAN helps share local devices with target servers, 

enabling fast troubleshooting and operating system installation. Furthermore, ASUS 

ASWM Enterprise provides easy deployment and management with a user friendly 

interface while delivering centralized management, asset supervision, notification
