PNSR-5002

The Portwell PNSR-5002 1U rackmount network appliance leverages the advanced capabilities of the Intel® Xeon® 6 SoC, enabling a single-server footprint with unparalleled performance, efficiency, and data protection capabilities. The Intel Xeon 6 SoC’s inclusion of next-gen Intel® QuickAssist Technology (QAT) enhances cryptographic and compression workloads, delivering greater performance and efficiency than the previous generation. This enables advanced hardware acceleration and substantial capacity growth on a single platform. Additionally, the Intel Xeon 6 SoC supports several enhanced security features, ensuring high levels of data protection and confidentiality: Platform Firmware Resilience (PFR), Intel® Total Memory Encryption (TME), Intel® Software Guard Extensions (SGX), and Intel® Trust Domain Extensions (TDX).

Designed for demanding edge computing environments, the Portwell PNSR-5002 network appliance, featuring the Intel Xeon 6 SoC with up to 42 cores at 235W TDP, is equipped to handle complex AI workloads, virtual radio access networks (vRAN), and high-performance computing (HPC) tasks with ease. It supports 2x 100GbE QSFP28 ports, providing high-speed network connectivity for data-intensive applications. It offers all-around security with optional TPM and a bypass function, with the latter available through our PNC seriesof OCP NIC 3.0 network interface cards. The PNSR-5002 excels in applications such as Edge Inference Servers, Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), routers, media production, security appliances, storage, and content delivery networks.
