Benefits and Applications

The Thunder HEsl-T is designed for mission-critical server applications requiring the power of dual processors, interleaved memory and high-bandwidth I/O performance. It supports two CPUs, including the Pentium III Processor or the Pentium III Processor with 512kB Cache. The Thunder HEsl-T also features an interleaved memory design, providing DDR-like bandwidth from an SDR design.This platform also features dual-channel LAN, optional SCSI, integrated VGA, and more. These features make our Thunder HEsl-T ideal for today's server applications.
