Supermicro Launches Socket C32-Optimized Servers
The company calls the servers the “first wave” of products designed for Socket C32 AMD Opteron 4100 Series.
Super Micro Computer Inc. has launched what it calls a “first wave” of servers optimized for AMD’s new Socket C32 AMD Opteron 4100 Series processors (formerly code-named “Lisbon”).
The new servers include Supermicro‘s new 1U Twin and 2U T
win systems. These systems include two dual-processor computing nodes per 1U and share 920-watt Platinum-certified Supermicro power supplies. Also among the new servers is a new short-depth, cost-effective, single-processor 1U server with a Gold Level efficiency power supply.
“The low energy draw of these new servers, which can be loaded with 35-watt six-core Opteron CPUs that consume only 5.8 watts per core, makes them ideal solutions for data centers and IT departments that want to minimize their power budgets,” explains Supermicro president and CEO Charles Liang. “Our Twin system architecture and unique resource-sharing designs … are further enhanced with the new generation Socket C32 AMD Opteron processors. These new 2U Twin systems feature four DP server nodes in 2U and optional 40 Gb/s QDR InfiniBand connectivity.”
The short-depth 1012C-MRF server is powered by the Supermicro H8SCM-F single-processor serverboard. With a depth of just 14.5 inches, this server features one PCI-E 2.0 slot, two internal SATA drive bays, two GbE ports and one dedicated LAN port for IPMI 2.0 remote system management. The compact 1012C-MRF also features a 350-watt Gold Level Supermicro power supply.
The 2022TC-BIBQRF/BTRF and 1022TC-IBQF/TF are based on Supermicro’s Twin system architecture, which enables two dual-processor server nodes per 1U. Each node features 12 DIMMs to support up to 128 GB DDR3 memory, a PCI-E 2.0 x16 expansion slot, dual GbE ports, and one dedicated LAN port for IPMI 2.0 remote system management. They also sport two 3.5-inch hot-swap SATA drive bays.
The multiple DP nodes share the 920-watt Platinum Level Supermicro power supplies to provide efficiency. The 2022TC-BTRF and 1022TC-TF also provide onboard 40 Gb/s QDR InfiniBand ports for high-speed connectivity.
The same series of AMD processors are supported by these Supermicro UP and DP servers.
