Summary
Dubbed the Avalue HPM-SRSUA, it’s the company’s server-grade ATX motherboard that supports the Intel 4th Generation Xeon SP Sapphire-Rapids LGA4677 single-socket platform. “Customers can benefit from the industrial standard ATX form factor solution as it minimises the effort and resources needed to upgrade existing systems, while reducing the time to market.” The HPM-SRSUA offers 6x DDR5 4800 RDIMM memory support for up to 1.5 TB featuring 50% faster bandwidth, 4x PCIe 5.0 x16 slots, and 3x PCIe 5.0 x4 slots. For storage, there are 5x SATA III (6-Gbit/s) ports with RAID functionality, as well as 1xM.2 M-Key slot to support NVMe SSDs. Dual 10-GbE Ethernet ports increase the transfer rate between computing nodes and further boost overall performance. Using the baseboard management controller (BMC) and intelligent platform management interface (IPMI2.0), an administrator can access the system remotely 24/7, to adjust startup settings, real-time system health diagnostics, firmware, OS upgrades, and prearranged predictive maintenance.
