AMD is one of the top X86-based platform provider that offers high-performance, high-core-count processors with Secure Encrypted Virtualization and Secure Memory Encryption. The PUZZLE-A001 and the PUZZLE-A002 are 1U rack network terminals powered by AMD EPYC 3000 and R-series processor to deliver outstanding computing performance.

This series leverages AMD’s advanced “Zen” architecture deliver up to a 52% improvement in instructions per clock (IPC) compared to legacy architectures. It designed with an onboard AMD Secure Processor off loading encryption, decryption operations, and executing for Crypto Co-processing that encrypts data before it feeds to the I/O, complemented with Hardware Validated Boot capabilities to ensure systems are booted from trusted software.

For compute-intensive workloads and complex algorithm processing, the AMD Embedded R-Series SOC enables system designers to leverage the benefits of 1.0-compliant Heterogeneous System Architecture (HSA) technology to boost parallel processing performance to new heights.

TPM (Trusted Platform Module) offers a broad portfolio of standardized security controllers to protect the integrity and authenticity of systems. With a secured key store and support for a variety of encryption algorithms, TPM security chips provide robust protection for critical data and processes through their rich functionality.

The PUZZLE-A001 and PUZLLE-A002 feature two PCIe (Gen3 x4) slots, allowing for installing full height, 200mm length Standard PCIe card, such us single/dual-port 10GbE NICs to accelerate applications that demand higher bandwidth, for example virtualization, media workflows, and backup/ restoration tasks for an ever-growing amount of data.

The expansion card also provides extra functions and computing power for the network appliance, Edge computing and AI inference, computing systems.

IEI smarter NICs - PulM Network Module slots support 8 lanes of PCIe Gen3 signal which is form CPU and PCH. The PCIe from CPU could be configured into two PCIe x4
