Intel Xeon Scalable processors is a new family of products with diverse performance and functionality. Depending on the features they have been divided into classes: Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. They differ in the number of cores, the base frequency, the presence or absence of Turbo mechanisms, the number of built-in units for floating point calculations (AVX-512 FMA units), the number of UPI connectors and even the max speed and capacity of supported RAM. They have built-in network interfaces (Ethernet) and support more PCIe lines than the previous generation. Among the multiple models, you can choose the one which perfectly suits your needs. The compact server structure has limits to the thermal power generated by the processor (TDP) – this should be taken into account when configuring the solution.

Each server module supports DDR4 Registered DIMM ECC (RDIMM), and Load Reduced DIMM (LRDIMM) with operating frequencies depending on the type of processor used and the available bandwidth of the UPI link. The 2400 MHz and 2666 MHz modules are available. In total up to 1TB RAM in 16 RDIMM modules or 2TB in 3DS LRDIMM modules can be supported. RAM should work in 6-channel systems – this is the optimal mode for the highest performance.

Depending on the choice of chassis, standard 3.5 “disks (12 pcs) or 2.5” disks (4 or 24 pcs) are supported. Chassis version for 24 2.5 “disks also supports NVMe SSD drives.  There is support for all types of drives: SATA, SAS or SSD – choose the right “bridge board” module to match used disks or required drives config. Each server module has its own disk pool – 3 x 3.5 “or 1 x 2.5” or 6 x 2.5 “( including possible 2x NVMe drives).

2U RACK housing with a redundant 2130W (1 + 1) power supply. Supports up to 4 server modules, each dual-processor module.

Three enclosure versions are available with the following number of disks: 12 x 3.5 “, 4 x 2.5”, 24 x 2.5 “(including 8 pcs. of hot-swap bays supporting also NVMe drives).
