KNPA-U16 is built on AMD EPYC platform to deliver incredible server performance. With up to 32 cores per CPU and up to 64 threads, KNPA-U16 packs incredible power in minimal space. 16 DIMM slots provide best-in-class memory capacity and bandwidth, and an integrated I/O controller on the processor eliminates the data transfer bottlenecks caused by discrete I/O chipsets for reduced latency and dramatically faster system performance.
KNPA-U16 supports up to twelve SATA drives via two Mini-SAS HD and four SATA connectors for more connectivity with external devices and cleaner cable routing. With six onboard OCuLink connectors that provide efficient port-to-port connection with NVMe devices, KNPA-U16 eliminates the need for PCIe transaction cards, while providing the reduced latency and higher maximum bandwidth of NVMe technology.
KNPA-U16 features an embedded iKVM module and is bundled with ASUS Control Center to provide comprehensive out-of-band and in-band management features for small and mid-size businesses. The embedded ASMB9-iKVM module supports remote BIOS updates, fan control, standalone KVMs, video recording, and BSOD capture, providing around-the-clock remote monitoring and diagnostics - even if the operating system is down or offline - through a user-friendly, web-based graphical interface that works with all major browsers. ASUS Control Center (ACC) is a centralized and integrated IT management platform for monitoring and controlling ASUS commercial products, including servers, workstations and digital signage. ACC enables remote BIOS updates, monitoring of multiple systems via mobile devices, and one-click software updates and dispatching, allowing easier server management for any IT infrastructure.
