Moxa Introduces Its First AI-ready Rackmount x86 IPCs for Reliable and Scalable Edge AI

Moxa proudly announces the launch of its first AI-ready rackmount IPCs —RKP-C220 Series. The RKP-C220 come with a x16 PCIe slot that supports full-length discrete GPU cards for AI-accelerated performance at the edge. Additional PCIe slots, a x8 and a x1, provide flexible expansion options. The robust fanless thermal design, high-performance processor, and comprehensive I/O expansion options enable the RKP-C220 to drive optimal performance from distributed devices for your Edge AI applications.

According to a Markets and Markets report1, AI technology is driving the demand for decentralized data processing and real-time decision-making solutions. By eliminating latency, AI at the industrial edge enables real-time data analysis and autonomous decision-making, which leads to enhanced operational efficiency, speed, precision, and scalability.

“In a complex IIoT environment, the ability to support massive data analysis hinges on a reliable edge device infrastructure. The RKP-C220 Series is designed to meet these requirements with the capability to power your Edge AI, enabling you to build intelligent IIoT applications with complete peace of mind.’’ Jonas Chen, head of x86 IPC Business at Moxa.

Unlock the Potential of Edge AI Using x86 IPCs With GPU Support

The RKP-C220 with its versatile PCIe slots, including a x16 slot that supports full-length GPU cards, is developed for AI platforms to efficiently handle data cleansing, complex data analysis, and enable accurate responses to user requests. Furthermore, RKP-C220 has passed the Intel® Edge System Qualification (Intel® ESQ) test using the AI language model for the Metro Device Qualification Test. This qualification validates RKP-C220’s ability to run demanding AI language models with high performance, enabling rapid development of AI applications.

The RKP-C220 Series is built using Moxa’s patented fanless heat-dissipation technology for reliable performance. By efficiently directing processor heat to an external cooling fin, the computer can provide stable continuous operations while running demanding AI language models for maintenance-free performance at the edge.
