Nexcom launches network appliance aimed at enterprise level applications

NEXCOM International, a specialist in the provision of network and communications solutions, has announced the launch of its next generation of x-86 based network security appliances - the enterprise-level NSA1088N8. With advanced network connectivity and expansion capability, the NSA 1088N8 is the ideal platform for building network security applications (such as IDS/IPS, anti-virus/anti-spyware/anti-spam and load balancing), and it is therefore intended for enterprise-class environments.

The NSA1088N8 is a 1U 19" rack-mount form factor platform, based on the Intel 3210 chipset and ICH9R controller (formerly codenamed Bigby). The NSA1088N8 builds on the extensive line of full-featured single-processor server boards to offer performance for today's applications and headroom for the next generation of Intel processors. The platform supports up to 4GB DDRII system memory with two memory sockets and can support two independent GbE LAN modules. Each LAN modular has 4 LAN ports with copper or fiber interface and also boasts a bypass feature.

The NSA1088N8 also supports a number of different types of CPU configurations including Quad-Core Xeon, Dual-Core Xeon, Core 2 Duo process, Pentium-Dual Core and Celeron CPU types. Based on different CPU performance, the NSA 1088N8 can easily be configured for various applications including firewall, VPN, Network load balance, Network bandwidth management, Anti-virus, Mail filter and many more.
