Kontron Releases KISS 2U KTQ45/Flex Quad-Core Industrial Silent Server

Kontron expands its portfolio of Kontron Industrial Silent Severs (KISS) with a new quad-core 2U rack-mount platform in four variants: KISS 2U KTQ45/Flex.

With four different versions and various expansion options, the KISS 2U KTQ45/Flex offers more tailored systems. The systems come in a full box depth of 472 mm or in a short version for confined spaces with a depth of 350 mm. With 2U height, the quad-core systems still offer enough space for four low-profile PCI and PCIe cards or two full-height cards.

Customers can choose from four different versions based on two different case depths and two expansion options (2 x PCI or 2 PCI and 2 PCIe). 

All four Kontron KISS 2U KTQ45/Flex versions offer up to an Intel Core2 Quad Q9400 processor with embedded lifecycle support and 8 GB DDR3 SDRAM. Additionally, the new servers implement Intel AMT 5.0 Active Management Technology, enabling in- and out-of-band remote management.

Equipped with Kontron’s PC Condition Monitoring (PCCM) solution, preventive servicing can take place on an “on-demand” basis. And for security sensitive applications, KISS 2U KTQ45/Flex features an integrated Intel Trusted Platform Module (TPM 1.2).
