Frequency 50/60 Hz
Voltage range selection Auto ranging: 115-230 V AC
Hot pluggable Yes

Battery specifications for UPS

The Azure Stack Edge Pro R device has the following specifications for UPS:

Specification Value
Battery type Lithium iron phosphate (LFP)
Battery voltage 48 Vdc
Battery capacity 5.0 Ah

Network specifications

The Azure Stack Edge Pro R device has four network interfaces, PORT1 - PORT4.

Specification Description
Network interfaces 2 x 1 GbE RJ45
PORT 1 is used as the management interface for initial setup and is static by default. After the initial setup is complete, you can use the interface for data with any IP address. However, on reset, the interface reverts to static IP.
The other interface, PORT 2, which is user-configurable, can be used for data transfer, and is DHCP by default.
Network interfaces 2 x 25 GbE SFP28
These data interfaces on PORT 3 and PORT 4 can be configured as DHCP (default) or static.

Your Azure Stack Edge Pro R device has the following network hardware:

  • Mellanox dual port 25G ConnectX-4 channel network adapter - PORT 3 and PORT 4.
