ROC285A - Coffee Lake DC-In Fanless Server

Introduction

ROC285A is an industrial 19” 1U Rack-mount rugged fanless server. Based on Intel® Coffeelake 14nm Core™ Q370 Chipset, ROC285A can be processed by Intel® Coffeelake-Refresh i7-9700TE (8 cores, 3.8GHz) processor. It supports up to 64GB of memory capacity, onboard dual Gbit Ethernet, 3 x DP (resolution up to 4096 x 2304), SuperSpeedPlus USB 3.1 ports (10Gb/s). Also, ROC285A provides PCIe x16 expansion for high speed delivering, like RAID card, graphic card or 10GbE…etc. With further advantages, for excample, HDD/ SSD easy swap tray and multi-expansion slot, we believe that ROC285A is a best choice for those people, who are eager for getting a head start in the field of mobile vehicles and planning to push the boundaries of possible with us.

The need for data security in Big Data era

In the Big Data era there are billions of bits of data produced every single day. With the ever-increasing data, how to handle volumes of data while securing it becomes one of the most important issues in modern society. From high speed read and write capacity to backup plan preventing from shutdown, all these features should be considered when choosing an ideal server for data processing. When it comes to outdoor applications, requirements of the server are even stricter – external forces, such as collision and vibration, may cause serious damage easily. However, the server needs to run nonstop to help the whole system respond properly. Thus, for on-the-road development a server is expected to well operate in mobile environment despite the harsh conditions.

Considering the examples given above, the professional rugged computer designer, STACKRACK, launches a new 19” 1U rack-mount rugged fanless server ROC285A. As a 1U rack-mount server, ROC285A provides the most cost effective and high density solutions. What’s more, fanless cooling system with no moving parts ensures internal stability while steering in rough terrain.

High-End Processing Units

Based on Intel® Coffeelake 14nm Core™ Q370 Chipset, ROC285A can be processed by Intel® Coffeelake-Refresh i7-9700TE (8 cores, 3.8GHz) processor. Compared with previous generations, i7-9700TE processor contains much more compute cores, which means the better performance of computations on the data and much more fast memory caches which are responsible for holding data that is currently being worked on. So, ROC285A could provides unique military grade capabilities and killer speed while dealing with a large amount of data.

 

High efficient I/O design

On the other hand, ROC285A equipped with high efficient I/O design, composing dual Gbit Ethernet, 3 x DP (resolution up to 4096 x 2304), SuperSpeedPlus USB 3.0 ports (10Gb/s). Efficient connection gives ROC285A the opportunity to exchange information in real time and deliver the data to required platforms without postponement.

PCIe x16 expansion

 Also, ROC285A provides PCIe x16 expansion for high speed delivering, like RAID card, graphic card or 10GbE…etc.

1. Sensor Fusion Capability:

By adding graphic card, the complete system could fulfill powerful CPU+GPU to support sensor fusion, which requires a powerful processing unit to be in the center, where all the raw data from the sensors is processed. Interpreting the data and deciding how to react, CPU+GPU can make sensors to be truly “smart” sensors and lead the whole system to work accurately.

2. Large Capacity Storage and an advantage of data backup plan:

By adding RocketRAID 4520SGL SAS RAID Card or RocketRAID 840A SATA RAID Card, ROC285A can expand up to 8 Bays SAS or 12 Bays SATA RAID. By using a large numbers of drives ROC285A is able to increase a great amount of storage. Moreover, ROC285A can build a RAID system to increase HDD fault tolerance. In data security, RAID refers to the way which an array of hard disks creates redundant backups of the data, so data can be retained even in the event of a catastrophic system failure.

3. High Capacity RAM support:

Further more, two SO-DIMM, dual channel DDR4 are designed in our rugged server, increasing the RAM of ROC285A up to 64GB and providing the best operating performance in such a compact size. These features make the ROC285A an ideal rack-mount server for mobile vehicles, e.g. railway, trucks, and military land vehicles.

Wide Range DC-DC Power Input

ROC285A features wide range DC to DC power input. Ranging from 9V to 36V, ROC285A can operate normally despite sudden drop or surge of power. Thus, with this outstanding system, our customers don’t need to worry about the possible lightning strike while planning an outdoor deployment.

 

Extended Temperature Range

With STACKRACK’s extraordinary research and perfect design, ROC285A can successfully operate from -20°C to 60°C degrees, and with our special industrial extended range of temperature layout, it can also reduce the potential computer glitches caused by hardware incompatibility and losses of connectivity caused by shock and vibration.
