XEON D-2100 IS HERE

Posted on 21 May, 2018

The Xeon D-2100 is one of Intel’s latest Embedded CPU offerings aimed at the entry-level server market. This series of CPU’s replaces Xeon D, and is designed to bridge the gap between the Atom and E3 series of CPU’s and boasts a 7-year life cycle – making it perfect for embedded applications.

The CPU series utilises multiple cores but maintains low power consumption and offers a wide array of IO features such as integrated SATA3, USB3.0 and PCIe GEN3 support. Additional features include Intel AVX 512 Instructions, GbE with RDMA Support and Intel QuickAssist technology.

Xeon D-2100’s main specifications include:

  • CPU cores – up to 18
  • TDP – 55-100 Watts
  • Memory – 4 channels DDR4 up to 2666Mhz memory speed and 1TB memory capacity. Memory Interleaving supported
  • Memory Type – ECC and Non-ECC RDIMM, LRDIMM, SODIMM, VLP RDIMM
  • PCIe – X32 PCIe Gen3, FlexIO, X20 PCIe Gen3
  • SATA – 14 SATA3 ports 
  • USB – X4 USB3.0 and USB2.0


The Xeon D-2100 is suited to many areas of computing and is widely used in applications such as network security appliances, cold / warm storage and virtualisation. It is great for customers looking to meet the demand for increased performance without dramatically increases power usage. Below are some examples of Xeon D-2100 systems available from Boston and Supermicro, along with some of their uses cases.
