AXIOMTEK launch high-performance network appliance platform

For greater flexible and easy maintenance, the NA552 has three front-accessible expansion slots that allow developers to configure PCIe LAN modules based on their solution requirements. With its friendly design and high capacity, this powerful network appliance is suited for IDS/IPS, VPN, content filtering, UTM, network security applications, and cloud computing solutions.

"Powered by the 3rd Generation Intel Xeon processor E3 series with flexible expansions, our brand-new NA552 give you high computing performance, professional outlook, friendly user interface, and excellent protection at once! Axiomtek’s NA552 offers multiple expansion slots and wider configurations. It also supports BIOS redirection to improve IT efficiency, and has up to 12-group LAN bypass function to ensure stable network connection. The incredible industrial-grade system is also capable of supporting the 3rd/2nd Generation Intel Core i processors. Customers can choose among different levels of CPU based upon their application or budget,” comments Sophie Tseng, Product Manager at Axiomtek.

Considering flexible design for users, the reliable NA552 offers three front-accessible slots for PCIe LAN modules. The selection of extending PCIe Gigabit modules with multiple copper and fiber ports includes:

• 2-port copper module with LAN bypass function - AX93317-2GIL,
• 2-port fiber module with/without LAN bypass function - AX93307-2FI and AX93307-2FIL,
• 4-port copper plus 4-port fiber module with LAN bypass function - AX93322-8MIL,
• 8-port cooper module with/without LAN bypass function - AX93316-8GI and AX93316-8GIL,
• 8-port SFP fiber module - AX93322-8FI.

The slim-type unit features two internal SATA 2.5” hard drives and CompactFlash socket for storing event log. For easy access, the front panel has one RJ console ports, two high-speed USB 2.0 ports, and thoughtful LED indicators that monitor power and HDD activities. The rear panel provides one VGA connector. Moreover, this powerful 1U network appliance platform supports mainstream Linux operating systems.
