The Intel® IP Network Server NSC2U, featuring the Intel® Xeon® processors 5400Δ and 5300Δ series, provides extended lifecycle support and improved performance-per-watt over previous-generation rack-mount servers. Due to high I/O throughput and performance, the NSC2U is an excellent choice for network security applications with large I/O requirements, including intrusion detection/intrusion prevention, VPN/firewall, and unified threat management solutions.
The NSC2U features shallow depth, DC power capabilities, and the ruggedness usually found on carrier-grade servers. It is well suited for enterprise application acceleration and content caching, and is an ideal platform for running Telco SoIP, including IMS, IPTV, video on demand (VoD), SIP application servers, IP-PBX, and IP-PSTN gateways.
