FDK Announces New Switching Hub for Blade-Server
9/27/2002 - FDK Corporation announced the development of a new switching hub "LM series" for Blade-servers.
The "LM Series" switching hub enables a high-speed connection between the LAN and the Blade-server. It is the first product of its kind to allow a maximum of 38 servers to all connect via a gigabit uplink to the Blade. The LM Series will be exhibited at "CEATEC JAPAN 2002" which commences on October 1, 2002.
Main Features of the Switching Hub "LM series"
- Adaptability
FDK's proprietary firmware, that controls the switching of the processor, can be customized according to the specifications of the Blade server. - Small Space Design (LM1035)
At only 153 x 250.6 x 68.6 mm in design, the compact switch hub offers the same port count as two switching modules: 19 port 1000BASE-T and 1port 100BASE-TX. - Response Speed
By making use of distributed constant circuit technology, improved switching response was realized at full wire speed. - Reliability
FDK's proprietary heat sink structure and efficient DC-DC converter helps solve the heat-generation problem often found in the high density mounting of Blade servers.
