networkcalculationstorage

Product Overview
ESC4000 G4S is built on the latest 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors to deliver high 2U server performance, packing significant compute power into a compact 2U form factor. The platform improves power consumption and clock performance compared with previous-generation processors, and supports Intel Optane DC persistent memory for substantially increased IOPS and enhanced deep learning inference performance through Intel Deep Learning Boost technology.

Key Features

• Powered by the latest 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors
• 165W CPU support with 16 DIMMs
• Flexible choice on versatile accelerators
• Maximum flexible 8+3 expansion slots in a 2U server
• Expandable storage for faster transfer speeds — NVMe port-to-port design and one M.2 slot with up to 2280-size SSD support
• High power-efficiency with 1+1 redundant 1600W 80 Plus Platinum power supply
• User-friendly design for easier server maintenance — tool-less chassis design for installation and removal
• Comprehensive IT infrastructure management software support (embedded iKVM and management platform)
• Smart thermal design for energy efficiency — reduces fan power consumption by up to 20%
• Two hot-plug, hot-swap fans design for full redundancy protection and thermal efficiency

Flexible choice on versatile accelerators
Supports up to four double-deck server GPUs in a 2U form factor. Broad GPU support including NVIDIA, AMD and Intel accelerators.

Maximum flexible 8+3 expansion slots in a 2U server
Offers eight full-length PCI Express 3.0 x16 slots (configured as 4 at x16 link or 8 at x8 link), one low-profile PCI Express 3.0 x24 (with riser card support for an additional PCIe x16 Gen3 link) and one PCI Express x8 for internal HBA/RAID card — providing flexible expandability for storage and networking applications.

User-friendly design for easier server maintenance
Includes externally visible Q-code for easier diagnostics, a tool-less chassis design for simplified installation and removal, and hot-swappable fans for faster maintenance.

Expandable storage for faster transfer speeds
Features full-bandwidth port-to-port OCuLink for two NVMe storage devices (delivering higher transfer speeds than PCIe switch IC solutions). One M.2 slot supports up to 2280-size PCIe SSDs for OS or boot drives with faster boot speeds.

Comprehensive IT infrastructure management software
Integrated embedded iKVM module and support for centralized IT management software to provide in-band and out-of-band management features, including remote BIOS updates, remote monitoring and diagnostics, fans control and KVM functionality.

Smart thermal design for energy efficiency
Smart thermal radar design includes multiple ambient thermal sensors for CPU, memory, GPU and front-panel board to enable dynamic fan speed adjustment and improve power efficiency, reducing fan power consumption by up to 20% and eliminating the power-sharing board for improved efficiency and lower operating costs.
