Intel Carrier Grade Server TIGW1U
The Intel® Carrier Grade Server TIGW1U is a NEBS-3
and ETSI-compliant carrier-grade rack server, providing
industry-leading CPU performance and power efficiency
in a compact package. It features the 64-bit Dual-Core
Intel® Xeon® processor LV 5148¹, providing improved
performance-per-watt over previous-generation rackmount
servers.
This high-performing server is an excellent choice
for the demanding environment and limited space of
the central office and highly available data centers.
It is also ideal for Services over IP (SoIP) for next-generation
telecom solutions and communications networks. Offered
as a standard building block, the Intel Carrier Grade
Server TIGW1U enables OEMs and TEMs to create their
own value-added solutions for a variety of telecom
applications including unified messaging, SoIP, call
control, media and signaling gateways, and operational
system support. In addition, the TIGW1U raises the
performance bar for telecom solutions with support
for Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology (Intel® I/OAT)+,
Intel® 64 Technology (Intel® 64)§ and dual-channel
Fully Buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) technology at either
533 or 667 MHz for maximized bandwidth.

+ Intel® I/O Acceleration Technology requires an operating
system that supports Intel I/OAT.
§ 64-bit computing on Intel® architecture requires
a computer system with a processor, chipset, BIOS,
operating system, device drivers and applications enabled
for Intel® 64 architecture. Processors will not operate
(including 32-bit operation) without an Intel® 64 architecture-enabled
BIOS. Performance will vary depending on your hardware
and software configurations. Consult with your system
vendor for more information.
