Aside from covering big grounds for its consumer products, MSI will also demonstrate and showcase a lot of other industrial products and solutions at COMPUTEX 2024. Since there’s a lot so we’ll just briefly go through what are they and what’s their purpose.
First, we have the G4101 server coming in a 4U 4-GPU setup hosting an AMD EPYC 9004 CPU with liquid cooling, 12x DDR5 DIMM slots, and 4x PCIe 5.0 x16 slots with 12x front 2.5-inch U.2 NVMe and SATA drive bays.
Needless to say, to host that many GPUs it means that G4101 is made for various AI workloads. But there’s another model G4201 as well with double the PCIe 5.0 slots. That one comes with dual 5th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors and 32 DDR5 DIMM slots together with 12x 3.5-inch drive bays – essentially this is like a “double up size G4101”.
For the realm of CXL, the S2301 CXL memory expansion server that mainly powers things like in-memory databases and data-intensive workloads, this 2U model is equipped with dual-socket 4th Gen AMD EPYC processor with support for next-gen models as well. Boasting 24 DDR5 DIMM slots and two PCIe 5.0 x165 slots, it also comes with 8x E3.S 2T drive bays for CXL memory and 8x ES.3 1T bays for NVMe storage.
As for the funky thing on the right, it’s the Smart 360° AI Patrolling Solution designed to monitor its surroundings actively and look out for potential natural disasters which can alert nearby crowds to disperse and head towards safety when they trigger. It packs solar panels for lightweight, longevity, and green power as well as EV-grade Li-Ion batteries for night time and power storage. The screen has a high refresh rate, an easy-to-see panel even during intense daylight, as well as easy to install, and comes in diverse shapes that can tailored according to client needs.
Moving onto edge computing, we have the MS-C909 Compact Size Edge Box fitted with Intel Elkhart Lake Processor designed for low power computing within extreme environments of up to 60°C while the MS-C910 on the right comes with Intel Raptor Lake-S or the refresh models that provides even more computing power and tons of I/O ports to hook up to various machineries and proprietary equipment, suitable for factories and smart warehouses.
Smart factories seeking AI-powered robotic arms and delivery units may take a look at the new NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin-powered AMR AI Cobot Pro and AMR AI Delivery Robot Pro. The former is capable of precise navigation with SLAM and efficient movement via 3D navigation routes in addition to object detection, and seamless integration with 3rd party applications.
The later is kind of similar in terms of the internal parts and fundamental technology, it just that it has a tray of some sort and is clearly designed for carrying stuff around instead of precision fitting some gears on a production line.
For the EV chargers, MSI has something new on the line with the release of the Hyper 180 Dual DC charger that offers 3 options of connectors – CCS1, CCS2, and NACS. Imitating the hose design of traditional oil pumpers which will be power cables in this case, the experience will feel more familiar for users to transition to. It is also configured to be smart by offering things like mobile app integration, RFID card recognition, 10.1-inch touchscreen for operation and optional 21.5-inch screen for ads placement.
The two smaller models are the EV series and Eco series AC charger for smaller installations like homes and offices while the EZgo portable charger makes it even easier by not requiring any installation.
Small scale portable computing welcomes the MS-1P17 Ultra-Slim Box PC with exposed antennas to allow the low power device to get good internet and LAN connection across the board which makes it suitable as a mini central hub for various applications while the square box is the MS-C918 Pocket PC that fits the role of a more conventional purpose of occupying as little space as possible with adequate computing power. Both of them runs Intel Alder Lake-N processors by the way.
On the other hand, the ND92 rugged tablet is a Windows tablet created for extreme industrial purpose with high durability and anti-glare screen. It also features 13th Gen Intel CPU which means modern feature and quite the processing power.
Lastly, assorted devices for mobile offices as well as agriculture supportive devices will be showcased as well.
