Many Braswell mini PCs have been launched in the last year, and usually we’d see 1U rack used by processor specifically designed for server such as Intel Xeon or Atom Avoton, but thanks to Axiomtek NA343R , we’ve not got a 1U rackmount server powered by Intel Celeron N3160 processor part of the Braswell family.
Axiomtek NA343R rack server system specifications:
- SoC – Intel Celeron N3160 quad-core processor @ 1.6 GHz / 2.24 GHz (Burst frequency) with Intel HD graphics 400 with 12EU (4W SDP / 6W TDP)
- System Memory – 1x SO-DIMM DDR3L-1600 for up to 8GB RAM
- Storage – 1x CFast, 1x 2.5″ SATA HDD. optional 3.5″ SATA HDD
- Video Output – Optional VGA port
