Customers looking for computing solutions at the edge of their networks often have to compromise -- to use either datacenter-class equipment which is too large and power hungry, or PC based equipment which can't run their enterprise level applications. The ThinkSystem SE350 fits the space between those two extremes. Its compact design, low power usage, and high performance are just the right combination for edge locations. The SE350 can be wall mounted, stacked on a shelf or installed in a rack. It is also designed to operate in rugged environments, up to 55°C.
