ASUS RS500A-E11-RS12U - Server - rack-mountable - 1U - 1-way - no CPU - RAM 0 GB - PCI Express - hot-swap 2.5" bay(s) - no HDD - AST2600 - GigE - no OS - monitor: none

• Up to 12 all-flash NVMe drives on front panel and four drives on middle panel to enable extensive storage and high-throughput performance
• Up to three PCIe 4.0 slots to enable higher bandwidth and improved data-transfer rates
• Onboard ASUS ASMB10-iKVM for out-of-band management with ASPEED AST2600 controller
• Integrated PFR FPGA as the platform Root-of-Trust solution for firmware resiliency
• Air cooling with heatsink achieves lower power-usage effectiveness (PUE) and optimized TCO for data centers
• New tool-less design for easy serviceability

• PCIe 4.0 ready
  PCI Express (PCIe) 4.0 delivers 16 GT/s bandwidth, which is double the speed of PCIe 3.0, offering lower power consumption, better lane scalability and backwards compatibility. ASUS RS500A-E11 servers are PCIe 4.0 ready to support a diverse array of graphics, storage and networking - enabling flexible scalability for demanding or increasing workloads.
• More storage in middle bay
  RS500A-E11-RS12U features unique design of additional four 2.5" internal storage supporting NVMe and SATA in middle bay, allowing up to 16 all-flash NVMe drives for different configurations.
• Scalable storage solution
  ASUS RS500A-E11 servers feature scalable storage solutions to support maximum performance for data center flexibility, and enable industry-standard SAS/SATA/NVMe interfacing through Broadcom Tri-Mode RAID adapters for increased connectivity and security.
• OCP 3.0
  ASUS RS500A-E11 servers feature the latest OCP NIC 3.0 mezzanine card with PCIe 4.0 bandwidth for a faster time-to-market network solution, delivering the speeds of up to 200 Gbps for high bandwidth and low latency. It also features a too-less, hot-swappable design to simplify installation and serviceability.
