The RS12-38700 features two Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® processors 5400 Series, hardware RAID, Cavium 2.5Gbps VPN engine and the latest in field service technology, delivering unique value proposition for next generation service appliances. (Taipei, Taiwan ¨C February 26, 2008) Lanner Electronics Inc, a leading designer and manufacturer of network security platforms and technologies, today announces the RS12-38700 storage appliance. The Lanner RS12-38700 is a 45nm Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® processor-based enterprise-class storage appliance for network centric service applications such as WAN acceleration, security information and event management, triple play, cache server and unified communications. ¡°Lanner¡¯s RS12-38700 is the amalgamation of 20 years experience in rackmount hardware design,¡± offered Will Chen, Chief Technology Officer. ¡°Compared to chassis¡¯ from generic manufacturers, Lanner offers the latest in easy to service technology, including field replaceable motherboard, drives, power supply, and fans.¡± Built around the Intel® 5000P chipset, the RS12-38700 supports two Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor 5400 Series, 8 fully buffered DIMMs, and two PCI-Express networking modules. A dedicated onboard Vitesse RAID controller supports 12 hot-swappable SAS/SATA hard drives with RAID 0, 1, 10 and 5 data protection, while a 2.5Gbps Cavium encryption engine offloads layer 4 processing to reduce CPU load and deliver more efficient system performance. ¡°Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® processors combined with the Intel® 5000P chipset delivers a wide array of features for storage and intensive computing tasks; such as increased bus bandwidth, fully-buffered memory support and flexible PCI-Express Ethernet I/O integration,¡± said Seth Bobroff, general manager, Storage, Intel® Server Platform Group. ¡°This high-performance, energy-efficient platform enabled Lanner to deliver a RAID SAS storage appliance allowing their customers to deploy highly responsive storage and network service appliances.¡± The RS12-38700 also supports two network modules and up to 8 Gigabit fibre or copper ports. Customers can choose from a range of fibre, fibre by-pass, or GbE RJ45 modules, to create a storage appliance with the right mix of networking interfaces. Careful material selection and proper use of damping technology addresses shock issues from the outset. The RS12-38700 meets the stringent requirements needed to eliminate harmonic vibration. Addressing mechanical and electronic issues in the early stages of the design process, the Lanner RS12-38700 offers what generic storage products cannot: a superior solution to the growing problem of data storage, retention and redundancy. By considering the growing need for networking and offload engines, Lanner is able to design a superior platform for a diverse set of application requirements.
