Advantech Launches USM-600 Dual-Board Workstations for Advanced Edge Computing
Intel® MECA Dual-Board Workstation
In collaboration with Intel, Advantech built the USM-600 workstation on an Intel® MECA baseboard with the capacity to support more than one CPU board. Accordingly, USM-600 features two CPU boards connected to a single baseboard. These CPU boards serve as two independent systems that can be equipped with Windows. Linux or Android operating systems, enabling each USM-600 workstation to support dual OS. This allows multiple edge AI tasks to be processed simultaneously for accelerated edge computing.
High Expandability for Flexible Edge Deployments
To support the integration of expansion cards for enhanced functionality and performance, the USM-600 workstation features up to three PCIe slots – one PCIe x16 slot on CPU board 1 and two PCIe x8 slots or one PCIe x16 slot on CPU board 2. This allows USM-600 to be equipped with the Intel™ Movidius™ X AI module and advanced graphics cards to upgrade the hardware for machine learning and multi-video stream-based edge inference. Furthermore, each CPU board features one M.2 SSD and two SATA HDDs that support RAID 0, 1, and 5 for enhanced performance, fault tolerance, and data redundancy, allowing USM-600 to be flexibly configured for a wide range of edge deployments.
Dual CPUs Enable Multi-Task Edge AI Processing
Equipped with two CPU boards that serve as two independent systems, USM-600 can support multi-task edge AI processing. This enables customers to conduct various data management, communication, and image/video processes simultaneously via a single platform. Therefore, USM-600 eliminates the need for multiple systems, reduces deployment costs, and saves installation space. For most industries, including retail, hospitality, and even healthcare, the USM-600 dual-board workstation’s upgraded capabilities can increase throughput and facilitate the scaling up of intelligent edge computing.
