2U 12-Bay AI Server Chassis

The HOTCFWQ S278-12 is a 2U rackmount server chassis populated with dual Xeon E5-2683 V4 processors and sixteen 32 GB DDR4 modules. Two Nvidia 2080Ti graphics cards and a CRPS 1300 W power supply are installed. It targets deep learning, AI training and edge computing workloads that demand dense GPU compute and high-speed storage access in a standard rack footprint.

Rack Depth and Power Compatibility

Verify that your rack provides at least 780 mm of usable depth to accommodate the chassis length of 780 mm. Confirm the facility supplies AC power within the 100-120 V or 200-240 V range at 50-60 Hz to match the CRPS 1300 W unit. Ensure the intake air temperature stays between 10 and 40 °C with relative humidity between 20 % and 80 % RH for reliable operation.

Storage Density and Network Throughput

The chassis supports twelve SAS or SATA hard disks via a 6/12 Gbps direct backplane and adds capacity for six cache drives, two native and four extended. A single Intel 2.5 inch 960 GB SSD is included as a boot or cache device. Dual Intel 10 GbE and quad 1 GbE ports deliver high-bandwidth connectivity for distributed training and data ingestion without additional network cards.
