Axiomtek Introduces NA580, Powerful 1U Rackmount Network Appliance Based on Intel® Xeon® E3/Core™ Processors

Axiomtek, one of the world’s leading designers and manufacturers of innovative, high performance and reliable PC-based industrial computer products, has introduced the NA580, its new, high-performance 1U 19” rack mount network appliance product. The network platform NA580 offers high reliability and performance through the LGA1151 socket Intel® Xeon® E3 and 6th generation Intel® Core™ processors (codename: Skylake) with Intel® C236 chipset. The powerful network appliance supports up to 18 Gigabit LAN ports and allows system developers to configure their network solutions based on different performance requirements.

This advanced 1U rack mount Intel® Xeon® E3 network appliance is scalable, customizable and has great expansion capabilities. Through the PCIe 3.0, the Axiomtek NA580 can integrate up to 18 Gigabit Ethernet ports. The standard configuration comes with 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports using Intel® i210 controller and supports 2 pairs of LAN bypass segments. Four DDR4 2133 MHz UDIMM sockets can provide storage of up to 32 GB and support both ECC and non-ECC memory types. To enhance reliability, this SMB network appliance platform supports data protection via 2 pairs of latch-type LAN bypass functions for fail-over option and features BIOS console redirection. Axiomtek’s reliable yet flexible network appliance platform is suitable for a variety of applications including VPN, firewall and security applications, network bandwidth controller, WAN accelerator and surveillance system.

“Axiomtek’s outstanding 1U x86 network security appliance offers a greater range of processor choices and expansion capabilities that allows developers to configure their network solutions based on performance requirements and price points,” said Stuart Tseng, product manager at Axiomtek. “The Intel® AES New Instruction (AES-NI) enhancements included with the Axiomtek NA580 use hardware-based acceleration to encrypt and decrypt data.  It also supports the Intel® Data Plane Development Kit (Intel® DPDK), a set of software libraries that can improve packet processing performance by up to ten times.

The new 1U rackmount network communication appliance, NA580, features two internal 2.5” SATA hard drives and one CFast™ socket for storing event logs. In order to address the various network application needs, this network appliance also features one console port, two USB 3.0 ports and a VGA port. There is a front-facing LCM activity indicator for convenient monitoring of power and HDD activity. This high-performance Intel® Xeon® E3 and 6th generation Intel® Core™-based network security appliance system also supports mainstream Linux operating systems.

Axiomtek’s 1U 6th generation Intel® Core™ processor network appliance NA580 supports long life cycle and gives customization service. The industrial-grade embedded platform is going to be available in October, 2015.
