We get hands-on with the IP65 rated Supermicro Outdoor Edge System designed to provide compute for 5G and AI video analytics directly on the pole. As organizations are evolving both their 5G and edge analytics (often for processing video) platforms, this is a solution to mount the compute node directly to the pole next to either the 5G radio equipment or video cameras.
Since there are no trade shows, we set up some time as the Silicon Valley shelter-in-place order eased to go see the new IP65-rated Supermicro Outdoor Edge System. Since we are using Supermicro's demo room, they are helping film the footage, they are providing the servers, and have project managers available for this and some of the other servers we looked at, we are calling this sponsored content. This was the only way I could do my normal trade-show coverage and I retained complete editorial control over the video. Still, I like to be transparent on this stuff since we are not using STH's facilities for this.
As a quick note, there is a TON of background noise which we did not hear that day in the demo room. The system was set up on a heavy base that was next to the Supermicro HQ lobby's main entrance with the I-880 freeway on the other side of the window.
