All-in-one Low-power Intel® Atom™ D525 Network Appliance Platform for SMB Market – NA-330

Axiomtek announces its new NA-330 low power 1U rackmount network appliance with ten (10) Gigabit LANs, utilizing dual core Intel® Atom™ processor D525 at 1.8 GHz with Intel® ICH8M PCH chipset. The NA-330 supports two (2) DDR3 SO-DIMM up to 4GB. For greater flexibility, the NA-330 is available with either ten (10) Gigabit Ethernet ports or eight (8) Gigabit Ethernet ports plus two (2) SFP based fiber ports. To help with unexpected shutdowns, our network appliance supports two-group LAN bypass function through WDT and GPIO pin definitions. The platform uses today’s Intel® Hyper-threading Technology to advance CPU performance and throughout. Axiomtek’s NA-330 is an ideal solution for network applications in VPN, firewall, UTM and more.

“Axiomtek’s NA-330 1U-type low-power network appliance platform offers users a high-end and stable network performance at a valuable cost. Powered by Intel® Atom™ processor D525 architecture with Intel® ICH8M PCH chipset, the NA-330 multi-Gigabit network appliance platform offers excellent performance in both network security and communication. The Gigabit LAN ports are available in copper and fiber configurations to meet different requirements. To enhanced reliability, the NA-330 supports data protection via two-group bypass segment for fail-over option. It also features function of BIOS redirection to console port,” said Philip Wei, Product Manager of Product & Marketing Division at Axiomtek.

High Port Density & LAN Bypass
To allow developers to configure LAN ports based on their solution requirement, the NA-330 offers up to ten (10) Gigabit Ethernet ports and two (2) Gigabit SFP ports using Intel® 82583V, Intel® 82572EI and Intel® 82541PI LAN chips. It also supports two-group of LAN bypass function via WDT and GPIO pin definitions to prevent sudden power shutdowns. The Intel® Hyper-threading Technology enables multiple threads to run on each core to increase processor throughput and performance.

Expansion & Storage Capability
In order to address the various network application needs, the NA-330 features two (2) 2.5” SATA HDD or one (1) 3.5” SATA HDD, a CompactFlash™ slot, a console port, and two (2) USB ports, and one (1) PCI Express Mini card (USB-type) available for WiFi wireless card installation.

For easy maintenance, the front panel has a front-facing LED indicator for power and HDD activity monitoring. The NA-330 also supports mainstream Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6 operating systems. The Atom-based network platform will be available in the middle of November, 2011.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
