Wasabi Certified® BSD: Powerful Performance for Advanced Networks
Wasabi Certified BSD is a tested, certified, and enhanced BSD-family operating system designed for advanced networked devices. WIth wide platform support and guaranteed performance, Wasabi Certified BSD (WCB) is the ideal choice for OEMs seeking to obtain the benefits of an open source operating system without the costs of the GPL license. WCB is being used today by Wasabi customers including Intel, Apple, Marvell, IBM, and many others.
Every Wasabi Certified BSD Board Support Package includes support for the specific features of the hardware platform, documentation, cross toolchain hosted on Windows, Linux, or BSD, complete source code, and 90 days of configuration and installation support. And Wasabi's regression, characterization and stress testing of Wasabi Certified BSD enables us to certify that the binary OS we deliver operates to a professional standard.
Serial Attached SCSI (SAS)
As the demand of high-speed storage I/O activity thrives vigorously, Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) comes to the scene as the next enterprise storage interface standard with blazing performance, high scalability and reliability. Its performance at 3Gbps is not the only selling point that makes it pre-eminent to its parallel SCSI predecessor and Serial ATA counterparts; it is the scalability and reliability leverage storage performance and lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) in the long run.
Dual & Quad-Core Solution
AICs Bensley-optimized chassis solution provides high throughput, high bandwidth and high capacity at performance-per-watt price point. With the implementation of FB-DIMMs memory and I/O Acceleration technology, Intel® Dual-core Xeon platform based server and storage chassis is an ideal solution for web server and other network intensive applications.
AIC Bensley-optimized chassis solution is available in 1U to 8U form factors, supporting E-ATX and SSI EEB compliant motherboards and fulfilling the server and storage needs from entry level to enterprise level. With the enhanced cooling mechanism and the power management compliant to Bensley standard, AIC delivers high quality and reliability chassis to the Intel adopters.
1.5U Form Factor
As the leading rack-mount server and storage enclosure designer and manufacturer, AIC continues to provide cutting-edge enclosure solutions by unveiling the World’s first 1.5U rack-mountable server enclosure to the industry.
Due to higher CPU speed and consequential thermal issue faced by most of the 1U platform, AIC has designed an innovative 1.5U platform providing superior cooling and expansions over 1U, and storage capacity of a 2U enclosure.
Moreover, 1.5U platform has less vibration and noise issues comparing to other 1U platforms. By having 0.5U less space than 2U platform, we can fit 7 more servers per 42U cabinet. This chassis is ideal for high performance computing, enterprise server, and general purpose server.
