Accessories

The GW3089 GBlade has been designed specifically for high density, multi-processor server clusters. Up to ten GBlades can be loaded into a 19” 1U rackspace. The GBlade is based upon the 64-bit Marvell™ Octeon TX2 CN9130 Quad Core ARM® Cortex™- A72 SoC processor operating at 2.2GHz. The GBlade comes standard with 8GBytes of DDR4 DRAM, 64GBytes of eMMC Flash and an M.2 2280 M-Key PCIe 3.0 x 4 socket for high speed NVMEe and other expansion. The GBlade is ideal for VPS and dedicated hosting servers, edge computing and content delivery networks (CDNs). The GBlade features a 10GbE Ethernet port for high speed data access in addition to a 1GbE port for power and device management. An onboard system health monitor allows for voltage, temperature and fan monitoring. The GBlade also includes a TPM 2.0 secure crypto-processor for ensuring system security and integrity. Power is provided over Ethernet (PoE 802.3at) using the 1GbE management port. A compact, modular aluminum enclosure with built-in fan allows for stand-alone operation or for loading up to 10 units in a 1U rackspace (using optional GW3090 frontplate kit). The GBlade comes pre-programmed with Ubuntu Linux.
