Exceptional flexibility, capacity, and record-breaking performance

Scalable HA Server Series

Express5800/A1080a

Express5800 Servers

NEC’s premier line of enterprise

platforms pursuing the highest

level of scalability, availability,

and reliability in every aspect

to support your business in the

cloud era

E7-8800 and E7-4800 product family, the latest multi-core CPU

adapting QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) architecture, A1080a series

gluelessly scales up to 8 CPUs and 80 cores. Maximum 16 memory

slots per CPU socket are supported to enable up to 2TB of total

memory in an 8 CPU configuration. Parallel processing of total 160

threads and massive memory enable exceptional processing

performance to address demanding requirements for real-time

analysis of vast databases and accommodating data warehouse

systems (DWH) as well as large-scale virtualized environments.

Exceptional performance

Components such as heat sinks, air ducts, and fans use light material

to reduce total weight*

high energy efficiency. Through weight and power reduction, A1080a

series contribute to minimize your costs on IT infrastructure.

Cost savings

Combining Intel’s new architecture with NEC’s advanced RAS

features, the A1080a series provide efficient monitoring and

management capabilities. It also offers exceptional availability and

serviceability with built-in service processors that work in conjunction

with NEC’s BIOS and Intel’s Machine Check Architecture (MCA)

recovery function to simplify management of all server resources.

Simple management and highly-reliable design

A1080a series servers deliver exceptional reliability and scalability to

meet enterprise requirements of the most demanding mission-critical

applications and cloud services platforms.
