Built for the Edge / Built for the network
Heptagon Systems HQ-Box2 is a series of rugged fanless servers in a state-of-the-art compact Box-PC enclosure.
Based on the Intel® Xeon® D-1700 LCC SOC, 4..10-core, the HQ-Box2 offers 384GB DDR4-ECC memory and an integrated 10/25/50Gb Ethernet controller with up to 8 ports. Built for Networking and Edge computing, the Intel SOC offers scalability and a rich feature set to address key requirements, while providing a new level of compute power to support any Edge/Network application.
With flexibility and customization in mind, the HQ-Box2 offers multiple configuration options to accommodate for a variety of use cases. Additional custom-configured modifications can be easily created with a short turnaround time.
The HQ-Box2 feature set is optimized towards dense compute and connectivity resources using integrated accelerators such as Intel® QuickAssist Technology (QAT) and Inline IPSec. Real-Time Features TSN (Time Sensitive Networking) and Intel® TCC (Time Coordinated Computing) are supported.
Typical applications can be found in 5G Edge infrastructure, rural, mmWave, telco mid-band 32T32R, cloud RAN and many more.
