Mini industrial servers

Kontron has released the 1U mini-format industrial server range Kontron KISS 1U Short that features a 25% reduced installation depth. The compact format offers the latest multicore processor performance, two SATA hard disks with optional RAID functionality and two PCI expansion slots for customer-specific expansion options.

The small form factor industrial servers have an installation height of 44 mm and are just 350 mm in depth, leaving enough space in the back of the rack for installing cables and dock-on devices. The modularity of Kontron’s KISS 1U Short mini-servers means the system is configurable and scalable according to users’ needs. The ready-to-go configurable Kontron KISS servers eliminate the need for custom design efforts, which may also be subject to extensive compatibility testing or special certification efforts.

The mini industrial servers target applications such as: communication infrastructure, automation, process control, industrial image processing, medical technology, transportation or building automation. Additionally, the Kontron KISS 1U Short industrial mini-servers can be applied as media-servers for digital signage applications. The low-noise emission of only approximately 35 dBA enables these servers to be put to work in noise-sensitive areas.
