"For the sake of meeting numerous critical network appliance demands, Axiomtek offers a wide range of network appliances to fulfill network management and network security hardware solutions.
The Network Appliances (NA) series is ideal for system integrators, software developers, and manufacturers seeking to reduce time to market." Powerful enclosure management features, including BIOS redirection to console port, LCM settings, and more, have been implemented so users can keep and manage their data easily.
The baseboard has Serial ATA and 40-pin IDE interface built-in, so customers can use the 3.5in Serial ATA hard disks internally.
The embedded OS can be stored on DOM (Disk on Module) or CF (CompactFlash).
Each of Axiomtek's Network Appliance models have a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) and can be used for VPN gateways, load balancing, network bandwidth management, SSL, firewalls, IDS/IPS, and much more.
