TriStation U2: The best trends of UltraComputing

The next generation of the TRITEC’s successful UltraSPARC™ systems provide a flexible and scalable enterprise resource that is easily adaptable to meet your dynamically changing organizational needs.

TRITEC U2 models help to create an open, high-perfor- mance environment capable of solving a variety of today’s technical and commercial problems.

The concept behind the TRITEC U2 family is simple – combine the strengths of time-proven, high-perfor- mance symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) with the per- formance and system resource scalability potential that can be achieved through a parallel architecture. The result is a robust, high-performance architecture that enables highly parallel processing.

With a combination of exceptional processor speed, high-bandwidth networking, accelerated graphics, and outstanding application performance, the TriStation U2 from TRITEC introduces a new area of computing. This is not achieved by upgrading one component such as the microprocessor. It is a function of the whole system: the processor, the data paths, the graphics subsystem, the external interfaces, the networking capabilities, the software.

The TriStation U2 architecture answers the four major challenges of desktop computing today: computational performance, visual computing, fast networking, and network-based software.

The best trends in computing come together in TRITEC’s powerful TriStation U2

TRITEC’s TriStation U2 feature highly accelerated graphics, imaging, and multimedia technologies, and built-in 100 MBit/sec Fast Ethernet networking. All at a very affordable price.

For everything from research, development, and design to your most demanding business applications, TRITEC’s TriStation U2 systems give you all the ad- vanced features you need to improve not only the speed, but also the quality of your work.

In fact, the TriStation U2 gives you a performance that, until now, was only available on systems costing much more. Which means it’s now possible to put supercomputer power on every desktop, allowing new levels of application performance and interactivity with everyone on your network.

Computational Performance

At the heart of these new systems is the 64-bit UltraSPARC™ microprocessor. Once again demonstrat- ing the incredible scalability of the SPARC™ architec- ture, the new chip combines high processor speeds with an efficient four-way superscalar design for un- precedented desktop performance. Its nine-stage pipe- line can issue up to four instructions per cycle.

And the UltraSPARC™ processor’s revolutionary Visual Instruction Set (VIS™) – the industry’s most flexible and comprehensive array of on-chip multimedia, graphics, and imaging technologies – delivers the new era of digi- tal multimedia right to your desktop.
