ZX Series

1U, 2U, & 3U Servers with a Mission

The ZX Series Servers were designed from the ground up to meet the stringent tactical, logistical, and operational demands of deployed applications. These rugged, 1U, 2U, and 3U rack mounted systems offer solutions for mission-critical applications on the battlefield, aboard aircrafts, ground-based vehicles, and ships. The ZX Series is a true family of servers that shares a common architecture and interchangeable components, and allows customers to configure systems to fit their needs. The ZX Series provides leading-edge commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) technology and innovative engineering to deliver the computing power necessary to drive sophisticated applications in demanding deployed environments.

State Of The Art Designs
Designed to incorporate the latest COTS motherboards, the ZX Series brings high performance, energy efficient multi-core processor technology in a cost-effective solution.

Superior Performance, Features, and Reliability
Over the years we have developed innovative ways to handle extended temperature operation, high shock and vibration, dust, salt, fog, fibers, etc., that otherwise would pose a threat to COTS equipment.

Engineered to Perform in Harsh Environments
The ZX Series chassis includes many features that further protect the system. For instance, excellent thermal performance is achieved using five fans that pull heat away from hot spots. A network of sensors monitors temperature around the chassis and controls the fans to provide adaptive airflow.

Seamless Component Upgrades and Technology Refreshes
A common architecture and shared components greatly ease logistical issues during system deployment, maintenance, and upgrades. With the ability to upgrade to latest Intel and AMD processors, these servers avoid “vanishing vendor” pitfalls and promise long-term serviceability.

Rugged, Scaleable, Versatile Servers and Workstations
The ZX Series offers maximum configuration flexibility based on customer specific applications. The ZX-1 offers a space-saving low profile. The ZX-2 offers room for additional disk storage. The ZX-3 offers greater expandability, including up to 12 disk drives that can be configured as a RAID subsystem. Dual redundant hot-swappable 650W power supplies ensure support for all multi-core processors and high-end PCI Express graphics cards. Both AC and 28V DC power supplies are supported.
