Rack Mount Systems Overview

KISS - multifunctional Kontron Industrial Silent Server

Kontron offers a large array of Intel® based Industrial PC Rack Mount platforms around two core architectures: passive backplane (SBC) and motherboard. The benefits of the passive backplane are its ability to support a greater number and combination of ISA / PCI expansion slots (up to 14) and to offer longer life cycles, which can be greater than 5 years.


Advantages:

• Low noise design
• Long life time support >5 years
• Newest processor architectures
• Shock proof design
• Excellent thermal design
• Hot swap chassis fans
• Easy maintainability

Rack Mount Systems Tech Highlights

Your Requirements are Our Challenges. With Kontron Industrial Silent Servers (KISS), Kontron Will Meet Your Demands.

4U Rack Mount Systems

The KISS system has been designed with flexibility in mind and can accommodate PICMG 1.0, PICMG 1.3, ATX and Dual Xeon/64- bit based motherboards, as well as PCI Express ATX motherboards, all in a case that can be used as a tower, desktop or 19" rack mounted chassis. The main attraction of KISS servers is their extremely low noise level: they are inaudible against normal conversation. KISS IPC servers are therefore ideal for most noise sensitive environments, such as hospital operating theaters and computer server rooms. The performance and configuration of KISS servers are based on Kontron’s extensive range of CPU boards and backplanes, which allows them to be adapted to meet a very wide range of requirements.

Redundant PSUs, RAID Subsystem KISS Stor and Remote Diagnostic Software make each KISS family member a highly reliable and continuous operating industrial Server.



Extra accessories adapt KISS servers to precisely meet your specific requirements:

• An additional hold down bar for short add-on boards helps the system to withstand higher levels of shock and vibration.
• The extension brackets allow you to put two extra full-size cards into the KISS.
• Up to three removable HDDs and one additional 5.25“ device can be added.
• Extra front I/Os are optionally available.
• Choose from three mounting options: 19" rack mount, Desktop or Tower.
• KISS Stor
• PCCM Remote Diagnostic software

4U Short Rack Mount Systems

The Answer for Space Limited Applications

The KISS-Short has been designed with flexibility in mind and can accommodate half size PICMG 1.2 and Flex-ATX motherboards. The main attraction of KISS-Short is its extremely low noise level, which is inaudible against normal conversation. Kontron’s KISS 4U Short offers the same features in drive space, maintainability and functionality as it‘s "Big Brother" KISS server but is only 300 mm deep. If space is an issue, KISS-Short 4U rack mount s the right choice.

2U Short Rack Mount Systems

The KISS 2U short system has been designed with flexibility in mind and can accomodate FlexATX and MiniITX motherboards, all in a chassis that can be used as a desktop or 19“ rack mounted cabinet. The main attraction of KISS 2U short servers is their extremely low noise level, which is inaudible against normal conversation. KISS IPC servers are thus ideal for most noise – sensitive environments such as hospital operating theaters and computer server rooms. The performance and maximum of configuration of KISS servers are based on Kontron´s extensive range of CPU boards.

2U Rack Mount Systems

Versatile 2U Solution for space limited applications The features of the KISS 2U include an especially low installation height (88.90 mm), extremely quiet (<35 dbA), scalable as desired, RoHs-compliant, long-term available and ruggedized. The Kontron Kiss Server is the ideal Industrial Server solution with redundant AC PSU and integrated hot swappable RAID 1 Subsystem. KISS 2U fea tures PICMG 1.3 and PICMG 1.0 slots boards or Flex ATX motherboards, and is accordingly expandable in an especially flexible fashion, up to Multi-Core and PCI-Express-based systems. In both the Flex ATX and PICMG 1.3 designs, the KISS 2U servers offer high-end performance, currently up to Intel® QUAD Core Q9400 and up to 8 GByte DDR2 memory. The chassis for the KISS 2U rack mountis designed either for the desktop or for installation in a 19“ cabinet.

1U Rack Mount Systems

The KISS 1U rack mount server provides numerous customer options with an especially low installation height (44.45 mm). It is extremely quiet (< 35dbA), scalable, RoHS compliant, has long term availability all in a ruggedized platform. The KISS 1U server features PICMG 1.3 single board computer support, and due to the flexible design provides Multi Core, and PCI-based as well PCI express based solutions. With PICMG 1.3 designs, the KISS 1U server offers performance currently up to Intel® Quad Core ™ Q9400 and up to 8 GByte DDR2 memory. 2 free fullsize slots, either in PCI or PCI express, options for more drives, and various power supplies enable KISS 1U server for different applications.

1U KVM – Keyboard-Video-Mouse
