TYAN Tempest CX S7106 Dual-socket server motherboard S7106GM2NR
The Tempest CX S7106 is designed to be an ideal platform for cloud computing and datacenter workloads. Featuring support for the Intel Xeon Scalable Processor Family, the S7106 utilizes an industry standard 12"x13" EATX form factor to support the widest range of commodity off the shelf server chassis designs. The board also utilizes the industry standard OCP v2.0 LAN Mezzanine slot to provide support for a wide range of high speed networking cards, including 1/10/25/40/50/100 Gigabit Ethernet.

Tyan's S7106 motherboard features a pair of PCIe x24 slots designed for use with riser cards to support up to 2 Full Height / Half Length PCIe x16 cards in a 1U or up to 6 PCIe slots in a 2U. Including the OCP v2.0 LAN and Storage mezzanine slots, the s7106 can support up to 4 PCIe x16 expansion cards in a 1U and up to 8 in a 2U enclosure.

Key Features
Xeon Scalable Processor Family
The new Xeon Scalable Processor is Intel's largest advancement in a decade and brings many new features and capabilities:

• Up to 28 CPU cores per socket
• 50% Increased memory bandwidth with 6 memory channels per socket
• Memory speeds up to DDR4-2667 (depending on CPU SKU)
• No slowdown in memory speed when deploying 2 DIMMs per channel
• Increased PCIe connectivity to 48 PCIe Gen3.0 lanes per CPU socket
• Native support for up to 14 SATA ports
• New Ultra Path Interconnect
• New Advanced Vector Extensions 512 (AVX-512)

High Expandability
Tyan's Tempest CX S7106 motherboard offers maximum expandability within a standard 12" x 13" SSI EEB form factor. This offers outstanding expansion capabilities in standard 1U server enclosures. A commodity 1U server chassis can support four PCIe x16 slots:

• (1) PCIe x16 OCP LAN Mezzanine (Supporting network speeds up to 100Gb/s)
• (1) PCIe x16 Storage Mezzanine (Supporting SAS HBA or 4-port NVMe retimer)
• (2) PCIe x16 FH/HL cards (In Left and Right 1U riser cards)

Things get more interesting in a 2U chassis as the motherboard features a pair of PCIe x24 slots. Tyan has a pair of available 2U riser cards with a MUX that support either x16/x0/x8 or x8/x8/x8 support, allowing each card to support up to one x16 slot and a x8 slot, or up to three x8 depending on configuration.

PCIe x16 Storage Mezzanine
The Tempest CX S7106 features an internal storage mezzanine slot to allow the deployment of additional storage options without consuming a PCIe slot in the rear of the chassis. The motherboard features support for an 8-Port LSI SAS3008 HBA and a PCIe x16 retimer mezzanine for NVMe deployment:

205W CPU Support
The Intel Xeon Scalable Processor Family features processors with a maximum TDP of up to 205W. With this in mind, the VRM of the s7106 motherboard has been designed to power the most demanding of the Xeon SP lineup.

Support for up to 2 GPU cards
The S7106 motherboard is designed to feature support for two GPU cards when deployed in a 2U chassis. The available 2U riser cards M7106-L24-3F and M7106-R24-3F both feature a x16 slot in the upper half of a 2U chassis, allowing double-wide GPU cards to fit in the airspace above the CPU heatsinks if 1U heatsinks are deployed. This allows a low cost way to deploy GPU accelerators in a wide range of commodity off the shelf server chassis designs.
