The TS100-E7/PI4 is a single-socket pedestal server system based on quad/dual-
® ®
core Intel E3-1200/CoreTM i3-2100 series processors and the Intel C202 PCH
chipset with support for up to 32GB of DDR3 1333Hz unbuffered ECC memory.
Upscaled performance increases processing speeds, while the super-quiet
design makes the TS100-E7/PI4 ideal for professional environments where noise
reduction is important.
The latest Intel CPUs
®
® ®
The TS100-E7/PI4 is ready for new-generation IntelR Xeon 32nm quad/dual-

®
25%) over previous generation CPUs. Also, with Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0,
the TS100-E7/PI4 provides more efficient, dynamic, and intelligent performance
enhancement on demand.
Ultra-quiet and energy-saving
Strict acoustic testing has shown that the TS100-E7/PI4 performs excellently in
noise control at less than 25.6dBA when idle – even lower than the noise output of
a projector (42dB). It facilitates quiet working environments, and ships with an 80+
power supply to reduce power loss and power consumption, helping consumers
save on energy bills.

With the ASUS TPM module supporting TXT technology, the TS100-E7/PI4 avoids
Trojan and malware incursions, while Hypervisor loads on start-up to provide
hardware-level security against software attacks, protecting data from memory
snooping.
Effortless install
Auto-setup in a few simple steps and the intuitive support CD mean users don't
need to go through a lengthy process as the install is pre-configured, and all device
drivers arrive fully installed with the latest versions, saving IT staff time and effort.
