ESSENTIAL SELECTION Equus Computer Systems unveils 60-bay rackmount server Equus Computer Systems has launched the Nobilis i2091R4, a highly scalable 4U rackmount server with more than 600Tb of storage capacity. The company said its highly scalable capacity and outstanding per formance make the Nobilis i2091R4 ideal for content delivery, data archiving, video surveillance and capturing, and law enforcement, such as body cams video retention. The top loading hard drive storage solution suppor ts sixty 3.5in + 2x 2.5in hot- swappable hard drives. It features two Intel Xeon E5-2600V4 processors with up to 22 cores each. Memory includes 16 DIMM sockets, DDR4 2400 (2TB), (LR) DIMM and RDIMM. With more than a half a petabyte in a compact 4-U box, the Nobilis i2091R4 has the capacity and high caching ability that makes it a good choice for environments requiring retention of video capturing data. The large capacity tool-less design decreases maintenance requirements compared to other options for storing drives to meet data retention needs.

Typical applications include instrumentation, test benches, product development and characterisation. Pasternack’s new series of waveguide phase shifters is comprised of seven models that operate in the frequency range of 18GHz to 110GHz and in seven waveguide bands from K to W band. They provide phase shift range from 0 to 180° and 1dB maximum insertion loss. The waveguide phase shifters are constructed of gold plated brass waveguide material and feature UG flange style per military standard. The micrometer allows for precision and repeatable phase settings. They are ideally suited for aerospace, defence, industrial, telecom, instrumentation and medical industries. ‘These precision phase shifters continue the expansion of our waveguide product line which offers a wide range of products off-the-shelf and ready for delivery, as opposed to taking weeks or months between ordering and receiving,’ said Mark Blackwood, product manager at Pasternack.

With the WiNG AP 7612, Extreme Networks offers customers a solution with hotel-grade aesthetics, faster installation and application Quality of Ser vice (QoS) right at the AP. The company said that in the hospitality market, the AP’s design is especially important, as most hoteliers do not want their wireless solution to inter fere with the aesthetic of their guest rooms. Extreme Networks said the round edges and shadow reducing bevels on the 7612 ensure that the AP can be seamlessly deployed across hotel zones, from guest rooms to conference rooms. It also features a snap-on bracket that reduces installation time to just minutes.
