Advantech announces the SOM-5992 Type 7 COM Express Basic module. Powered by a server-grade processor with up to 16-core scalability and up to 64 GB DDR4 memory, it delivers high computing performance. Integrated with two 10GBASE-KR, it provides high bandwidth interfaces for data transmission and reception. The good computing capability and low thermal design power deliver high power efficiency and make it suitable for microservers, networking and cloud storage.

In the past, high-end COM Express modules could only support 32 GB memory because of board size limitations. SOM-5992 supports a maximum of 64 GB memory, which puts it closer to server application scenarios and makes it possible to take advantage of the Intel Xeon 16-core processor in a 125 x 95 mm COM Express Basic module. Designed for servers, the product will satisfy users who pursue high performance in order to process multiple complicated tasks in the system, and can cover thousands of data exchange demands from worldwide clients.

Since it is a standard form factor and ready to use, users can adopt it into their systems without taking additional time for customisation, and there is no sacrifice of limited system space. There is a wide spectrum of performance options; users only need to choose the configuration of CPU and memory requirements based on their system specifications. The enhanced availability and scalability allow for quick integration, easy platform upgrade and hardware virtualisation benefits.

The SOM-5992 incorporates two 10GBASE-KR interfaces, which help fulfil server application demands in the area of COM Express. Moreover, PCIe x16 and 8 PCIe x1 support non-transparent bridge (NTB), which allows redundancy via PCIe. This reduces data loss, allowing a secondary system to take over PCIe storage devices if a CPU fails and provides high availability for continuous service applications.
