The Nomad Series 2U Ampere Rugged Rack Mount Server delivers high-density, low-power computing in a rugged 2U chassis built for mission-critical environments. Designed to support single and dual AMPERE Altra and Altra Max processors, this platform provides up to 256 physical cores for scalable performance at the edge. With support for up to 16 DDR4 DIMMs and multiple PCIe Gen4 expansion slots, the system is engineered to handle demanding compute, networking, and I/O workloads.

Flexible I/O options include high-speed Ethernet, MIL-1553 support, and configurable expansion for mission-specific peripherals. Storage is equally adaptable with front-access configurations supporting up to eight SATA drives, six NVMe U.3 drives, or up to twelve M.2 NVMe devices depending on configuration. Designed, assembled, and tested in Sparks, MD, USA, the Nomad Series 2U reflects Rugged Science’s commitment to long-term reliability and American-built engineering excellence.
