RadiSys Announces New Embedded Server with Tremendous Processing Performance

THE PROCELERANT™ RMS420-5520DT IS IDEAL SERVER TO POWER HIGH PERFORMANCE PARALLEL COMPUTING APPLICATIONS

San Jose, CALIF.—March 30, 2009 — RadiSys® Corporation (NASDAQ: RSYS), a leading global provider of advanced embedded solutions, today announced the Procelerant™ RMS420-5520DT, a high performance server platform that supports two new E5500 Series quad-core Intel® Xeon® processors. The RMS420-5520DT has the potential to provide equivalent processing power to multiple current-generation servers. Using the new E5500 Series processors alone, the RMS420-5520DT server can deliver more than a 100 percent performance improvement over an equivalent server using current state-of-the-art quad-core processors. In addition, the RMS420-5520DT server supports up to three high power co-processors, such as GP-GPU cards, that can accelerate processing of algorithms for image or signal processing by a factor of 10-30X more than the server alone. Tremendous processing performance, combined with unprecedented I/O bandwidth and connectivity, will enable companies to reduce the number of servers needed for compute intensive applications and achieve significant cost savings.

Supporting multiple co-processors makes the Procelerant RMS420-5520DT the ideal platform for parallel processing, a key requirement for many medical imaging, industrial automation and test & measurement applications. Additionally, the RMS420-5520DT offers an optional on-board RAID controller that allows end users to manage storage over multiple drives. Various drive bay options are also available, allowing the RMS420-5520DT to be populated with up to eight disk drives. RadiSys designed the RMS420-5520DT as a compact, quiet 4U server. At only 20 inches deep, it can be mounted in tight quarters and it has a low, 46 dBA acoustic noise level at full load. Like all RadiSysys embedded servers, the RMS420-5520DT comes with five-plus year lifecycle support that includes full revision control.

"The RMS420-5520DT will allow end users to reduce costs by using one server to perform functions that previously required multiple servers and disk arrays," said Wade Clowes, Vice President and General Manager of commercial markets for RadiSys. "As companies continue to look for ways to do more with less, the RMS420-5520DT offers them a way to increase productivity while reducing overall cost of ownership."

ABOUT THE RADISYS PROCELERANT™ RMS420-5520DT

The Procelerant RMS420-5520DT features dual E5500 Series quad-core Intel® Xeon® processors with integrated DDR3 memory controllers and dual Intel® E5520 chipsets, which provide 72 lanes of PCI-Express Gen 2.0 connectivity. The standard server offers 3x16, 2x8 and 2 x4 PCI Express Gen 2.0 slots. The optional on-board RAID controller replaces one of the x8 slots. The RMS420-5520DT can be equipped with a 1200W power supply and cooling to support up to three, 225W co-processor cards and additional I/O. A variety of server configurations are available including up to 6, 3.5" or 8, 2.5" SATA or SAS hard disk drives. The RMS420-5520DT supports extended operating temperatures and meets EMC Class-B radiated emission standards.
