Kontron today introduced the new Kontron Industrial Silent Server KISS 4U EATX. It hosts the extremely high processor performance and energy efficiency of two new 8-core Intel Xeon E5-2600 processors each with up to 2.5 GHz turbo clock frequency, and is housed in a robust, yet ultra-quiet, industrial server design.
Thanks to the integrated motherboard for the Extended ATX standard, the new Kontron KISS 4U EATX boasts an extremely high power density and scalability - paired with flexible configurability for individual application requirements. With a total of 16 processor cores, 36 threads and up to 512 GB of DDR3 ECC RAM the industry server with its long-term availability of up to five years is the optimal solution for performance-hungry applications such as industrial imaging, medical technology, cloud computing, as well as storage and simulation applications.

Kontron's Industrial Silent Server KISS 4U EATX with its low noise level of around 35dBA is also ideally suited for applications in noise-sensitive areas like manned control rooms, in professional A/V equipment and in long-term available CAD, QS and video surveillance systems. The KISS 4U EATX also stands out from other conventional servers, as it meets tough application demands, including high shock and vibration resistance as well as hot-swappable chassis fans which can now be exchanged more conveniently via the front panel, minimizing maintenance effort. Besides the standard version with IP20 protection, there is also a variant with IP52, which protects against dust and dripping water. The operating temperature ranges from 0 to 50 °C.

OEMs and end-users benefit from high quality design and manufacturing, flexible configurability with standard components and the user-friendly administration options of the Kontron KISS 4U EATX, which all contribute to the especially low Total-Cost-of-Ownership.

The 32nm Intel Xeon processor E5-2600 family introduces a multitude of enhancements intended to significantly improve processor performance over previous generations, while lowering latency and saving power intelligently. It is the first dual-socket server-class Intel processor to integrate PCI Express 3.0, enabling the I/O hub to be removed to save blade- or board-level real estate.

Thanks to a MTBF of 50,000 hours, Kontron's latest industrial rackmount server guarantees high availability while minimizing maintenance costs. The Kontron Industrial Silent Server KISS 4U EATX is CE certified and UL qualified. It supports Linux and Windows operating systems and is now in stock as a standard system. Alternatively it can be configured to fit customer requirements and shipped as a complete, independently certified solution. The Kontron KISS 4U EATX is available in APAC and EMEA now.
