High-Performance, High-Efficiency SuperBlade Product Line
Features Supermicro Server Building Block Architecture for
Easy Customization


    HANNOVER, Germany, March 15 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ --
Super Micro Computer, Inc., a leader in
application-optimized, high performance server solutions,
today unveiled its SuperBlade product at CEBIT 2007 in
Hannover, Germany, Hall 21, Stand A34, Booth A1. 
Implementing Supermicro's Server Building Block
Solutions(TM) architecture, SuperBlades provide versatile
configuration options that enable enterprises to optimize
for specific applications. Supermicro blade servers utilize
high-efficiency, redundant power supplies to ensure
energy-efficient operation and reliability.

    "Our SuperBlade(TM) designs implement the very
latest advancements in server technology, making them not
only suitable for HPC applications but also ideal for
enterprise solutions," asserts Charles Liang, CEO and
president of Supermicro. "Taking modular computing to
another level, our high-density blades can be optimized for
a wide range of applications with exceptional
scalability."

    SuperBlades support quad-core or dual-core processors
and feature earth-friendly, high-efficiency power supplies
to maximize performance-per-watt and reduce total cost of
ownership (TCO).  For leading reliability and availability,
four high-efficiency, redundant power supplies power each
SuperBlade system. Supermicro offers customers the
flexibility to choose between 3000W and 7500W
high-efficiency power supply depending upon system
configurations.

    The Supermicro 7U blade enclosure on display holds ten
blades.  It can support up to 40 processors and up to 640GB
of memory.  Supermicro DP blades support dual hot-plug SAS
or SATA hard drives. Customers have the option to choose
either 2.5" or 3.5" hard drives.

    For management and communication, the SuperBlade system
comes standard with a chassis management module for IPMI 2.0
remote server management that provides virtual media over
LAN and KVM over LAN capabilities.  SuperBlade provides
high-speed interconnect capability -- Gigabit Ethernet
switch or pass-thru module, and 20 Gbps DDR InfiniBand
switches. 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch modules are coming
soon. SuperBlade is capable of extremely high-bandwidth
communication (up to 40Gbps per blade). These solutions can
be selected based on specific application requirements to
provide seamless networking between systems.

    In addition to its live SuperBlade demo, Supermicro is
also demonstrating a host of other innovative servers at
CEBIT.  Three different SuperServer demos feature the newly
defined Universal I/O(TM) (UIO) architecture for optimized
storage and networking flexibility. Another new innovation
is a live 1U Twin(TM) server with two DP nodes in a 1U
chassis. And for those who want four or five add-on cards,
Supermicro's 2U in 1U(TM) server is the ideal solution.
