  • R2096Q-2U: A rackmount 2U unit with dual Intel Scalable CPUs, 2TB of DDR4 memory with Intel Optane support, eight SAS/SATA drives, two 10GBase-T Ethernet controllers, four PCIe 3.0 x16 (LP) slots, and 1000W redundant power supplies.
  • M2098Q-2U4N: A rackmount 2U model with four nodes, each featuring dual Intel Scalable CPUs, 2TB of DDR4 memory, and three 3.5 SAS/SATA drives. The system also includes onboard Broadcom drive controllers and 2200W redundant power supplies.
  • M2099Q-2U4N: Another rackmount 2U server with four nodes featuring dualIntel Scalable CPUs , 2TB of DDR4 memory , and six 2.5 SAS/SATA drives, plus onboard Broadcom drive controllers and 2200W redundant power supplies.

Featuring up to 28 physical cores per CPU and designed to deliver accelerated per core performance, as well as significant increases in memory and I/O bandwidth, the latest Equus server products are tailored to the needs of data-heavy, latency-sensitive applications, including in-memory databases and high performance computing.
