Key Highlights:

Leveraging the Latest Intel Muscle: Supermicro integrates the new Intel Atom x7000RE CPUs into their systems, doubling the number of cores compared to the previous generation. This translates to significant performance gains for edge workloads.
 

Going Small and Efficient: The SYS-E100 series and SYS-E102 series are the stars of the show when it comes to size and efficiency. These ultra-compact systems capitalize on the low power consumption (under 12 watts) of the Intel Atom processors to deliver efficient computing power.


The SYS-E102 is a tiny box-sized system offering up to 16GB of memory, multiple ports, and a Nano SIM slot, perfect for diverse edge applications.


The SYS-E100 takes it a step further with a fanless design, making it even more resistant to dust and dirt, ideal for industrial settings. It also comes in a DIN rail mountable version for easy integration into existing setups.
 

Powering Up AI at the Edge: Supermicro offers the 1U SYS-111AD-WRN2 for tackling AI inferencing tasks directly at the edge. This system packs a punch with support for a full-size GPU card, along with 14th/13th Generation Intel Core processors and 128GB of RAM - making it suitable for graphics-intensive applications like video processing and robotics.
 

Heavy Duty Edge AI: The SYS-E403 caters to demanding edge AI workloads. This system brings data center-level performance to the edge with its support for powerful Intel Xeon processors and room for up to three accelerator cards. Despite its impressive capabilities, the SYS-E403 maintains a compact form factor, allowing for deployment in tight spaces.
 

Overall, Supermicro's new embedded systems provide a compelling solution for organisations seeking to enhance their edge computing capabilities. With a range of options catering to various needs, from ultra-low power to data center-class performance, Supermicro empowers users to deploy intelligent applications at the edge efficiently.
