NEXCOM’s NSA 7146 Equipped with the Latest 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processor Family

What’s new?
NEXCOM’s performance rackmount appliance NSA 7146 now comes ready with Intel’s latest 2nd Generation Xeon^® Scalable processors. These processors (codenamed Cascade Lake-R), enhanced with new capabilities that can boost performance, customer value and feature industry-leading clock rates.

Traditional IT infrastructure no longer works. In the 5G world’s rapidly changing environment, dedicated and purpose-built appliances have been replaced by commercial, off-the-shelf hardware platforms optimized for scale and agility with virtualization software. Teeming with mobile devices, more diverse data traffic continues to emerge, and the importance of information security has increased exponentially. We now face new, complicated, and rapidly evolving use cases, in addition to more frequent deployments, upgrades, and replacements of network functions and components than ever before.

As a long-term adopter of Intel technology, NEXCOM has validated the latest 2^nd Generation Intel^® Xeon^® Scalable processors in our platforms and proudly introduce the NSA 7146, with increased built-in AI acceleration and hardened security. The NSA 7146 has further completed verification as an Intel Select Solution for NFVI Red Hat Configurations v2 and an Intel Select Solution for Visual Cloud Delivery Network, featuring enhancements to computing performance through its dual scalable processors and flexible NEXCOM Ethernet modules, which support speeds up to 100GbE.

The embedded C627 chipset supports Intel^® QuickAssist Technology (Intel^® QAT) to accelerate heavy network encryption/decryption. The NSA 7146 also includes IPMI 2.0 remote management and swappable system fans for simple operation and easy maintenance. The CRPS redundant power supply additionally prevents service interruption caused by single PSU failures. The NSA 7146 is thus an excellent option for deployment of Network Function Virtualization Infrastructure in an ever-evolving business world.
