1U · Vortex OT-Cloud Edge Node

ARS-121L-NE316R

A dual-processor edge node bridging the OT-Edge to the Secure OT-Cloud.

2 × Arm 16-core LX2160A
8 × SFP+ 10GbE
128GB DDR4 · 2TB NVMe
2 × 300W PSU

The 1U Vortex node is the entry point to the OT-OCN fabric — a compact, Arm-based dual-processor chassis that runs the OT-Edge interface on one processor and the core OT-Cloud services on the other. Immune by design, deterministic by default.
