Designed for diversified business IT environments, the TVS-1272XU-RP features an 8th generation Intel Core™ processor, a built-in 10 Gb E Smart NIC, & PCIe expansion for 25 Gb E / 40 Gb E connectivity to boost intensive large file sharing, heavily-loaded backups, or virtualization applications. PCIe expandability also allows for installing graphics cards to empower AI workflows & video transcoding, & the 4K HDMI 2.0 output can display surveillance videos on a monitor or TV to improve surveillance management. The TVS-1272XU-RP also features a redundant power supply to ensure maximum system uptime. The TVS-1272XU-RP features an 8th Gen Intel Core™ i 3-8100 quad-core 3.6 GHz processor & up to 64 GB DDR4 memory, delivering higher performance to help you accomplish more tasks efficiently. It provides four Gigabit & two 10 Gb E SFP+ LAN ports, supports SATA 6 Gb/s drives, & features AES-NI encryption for delivering high performance while also maintaining the security of your data. The TVS-1272XU-RP supports dual-channel DDR4 memory in four Long-DIMM slots. When using paired memory modules, the TVS-1272XU-RP can leverage the power of dual-channel architecture to boost performance. You also customize the memory configuration (supports up to 64 GB RAM) of the TVS-1272XU-RP for greater performance to tackle dynamically-changing workloads such as virtualization. The TVS-1272XU-RP features high-quality hardware & expandable architecture, enabling optimum performance & flexibility to fulfill business needs in performance & application diversification. The TVS-1272XU-RP provides two 10 Gb E SFP+ ports that use Smart NIC controllers. They support the i SCSI Extensions for RDMA (i SER) protocol, allowing data to bypass general network drivers, the socket layer, & to directly enter memory buffers of the ESXi server & storage to offload CPU workloads. When both the VMware server & the TVS-1272XU-RP support i SER, it can provide up to 60% increased random read/write performance & 50% decreased latency, providing an essential tool to optimize demanding virtualization applications. The TVS-1272XU-RP provides multiple PCIe slots. To ensure that the SATA drives have sufficient bandwidth, it is recommended to only use low-end expansion cards, (such as a 1 Gb E NIC, USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.2 Gen 1 card, or Wi-Fi adapter) with the PCIe Gen 2 slot (Slot 1) as this slot is connected to the PCH. For high-end expansion cards (including 10 Gb E/40 Gb E NICs, SAS cards, Mustang-200 acceleration card, & graphics cards), it is recommended to use PCIe Gen 3 slots (Slot 2, 3, 4) as these slots are connected to the CPU. The TVS-1272XU-RP features 4 PCIe slots that allow for the usage of various expansion cards to expand application potential.
