Intel® Carrier Grade Server TIGH2UOverview

The Intel® Carrier Grade Server TIGH2U is a NEBS-3 and ETSI-compliant 2U carrier-grade rack-mount server, delivering industry-leading performance-per-watt over previous-generation rack-mount servers. It features the Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® processor 5400Δ series - based on Intel's latest 45nm technology - to provide breakthrough performance and energy efficiency for compute- and I/O-intensive applications and workloads.
This high-performing server is an excellent choice for the demanding environment and limited space of the central office and high availability data centers. It enables Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and Telecom Equipment Manufacturers (TEMs) to create specialized, value-added solutions for a variety of telecom applications including unified messaging, Services over IP (SoIP), call control, media and signaling gateways, and operational system support.
The TIGH2U is designed to be fire-resistant and to withstand extreme heat, humidity, altitude and zone 4 earthquake shock. Advanced server management and telco alarm management features provide visual, audible (optional) and System Network Management Protocol (SNMP) event indications of faults, consistent with the rigid requirements of the telecom central office environment.
