New PUZZLE-A002 1U rackmount network appliance for deep learning AI

ICP Electronics Australia is pleased to present iEi Integration’s new PUZZLE-A002 1U Rackmount Network Appliance with AMD R-Series RX-421ND processor and 6x GbE RJ45 ports.

The PUZZLE-A002 is a next-generation network device, perfect for any business no matter the size – small companies and global businesses alike. The focus of this unit is to marry low power consumption, hardware-accelerated encryption, and international standards of network security. Suitable for compute-intensive workloads and complex algorithm processing, the PUZZLE-A002 features an AMD R-Series processor and up to 32GB dual-channel DDR4 RAM, allowing lightning-fast multi-tasking with minimal energy consumption. Additionally, it supports a hardware-accelerated AES-NI engine, for unmatched encryption capability to boost system performance while ensuring the safety of all sensitive data.

If the base system isn’t enough, the PUZZLE-A002 comes with 2x PCIe x4 slots for extra computing power, enabling you to achieve tasks requiring higher bandwidth such as virtualisation, media workflows, and large quantities of data backup/restoration. It also features 6x 1GbE ports, 1x M.2 A Key slot, and 1x mini PCIe slot.

As for security capabilities, it supports TPM security chips – internationally standardised security controllers to protect the authenticity and integrity of systems. These chips feature secure cryptographic key storage, support for a variety of encryption algorithms, and robust protection for critical data inbuilt to your machine. The PUZZLE-A002 can be utilised in Unified Threat Management, as an IDS, as a wireless gateway, for WAN optimisation, as a NGFW (next-gen firewall), or as an application delivery controller.

Key features include:

  • AMD R-Series RX-421ND Quad-Core 2.1 GHz processor
  • 2x DDR4 2400MHz Non-ECC UDIMM, up to 32GB
  • 6x GbE RJ45 via BROADCOM BCM 5720
  • 1x RJ45 Console, 2x USB 3.1 Gen 1 (5Gb/s), 2x USB 2.0, LCM
  • 1x PCIe x8, 2x 2.5” SATA Drive Bay, 1x PCIe Mini, 1x SD Slot
  • 2x PCIe x4
