With two integrated NVIDIA RTX™ 2000 Ada GPUs, custom-designed thermal management, and a proprietary edge device management software framework, the MAXER-5100 sends a strong statement of intent.
(Taipei, Taiwan – 17 June, 2025) Leading provider of advanced AI solutions AAEON (Stock Code: 6579), has released a new addition to its AI Inference Server product line, the MAXER-5100 – the world’s first 8L AI inference server equipped with two integrated GPUs.
The MAXER-5100’s default model comes with the 24 core, 32 thread 14th Generation Intel® Core™ i9 processor 14900K and two onboard NVIDIA RTX™ 2000 Ada GPUs. Meanwhile, a barebone SKU is available, accommodating up to 65W CPUs from across the 12th, 13th, and 14th Generation Intel® Core™ processor lines as well as PCIe slots for other compatible GPUs, per project need.
Given the processing power and AI performance the system offers, the MAXER-5100 is primarily positioned as a central server for the management of multiple edge devices, particularly with its Certificate Authority (CA) support granting additional security for smart infrastructure, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing applications. Moreover, the MAXER-5100’s use of a zero-trust secure tunnel and onboard TPM 2.0 allows for encrypted data transmission between the server and multiple edge devices, as well implement over-the-air updates and remote diagnostics.
The MAXER-5100 can host up to 128GB of DDR5 storage via four DIMM slots, while storage is scalable and customizable through a combination of both 2.5” SSD and 3.5” HDD bays and an M.2 2280/2242 M-Key slot for either PCIe Gen 4 or additional SATA modules, where greater capacity is needed for solutions running inferencing engines for AI pipelines alongside large datasets. With this combination of high-speed storage and memory support, the MAXER-5100 can also be seen as a platform for AI model fine-tuning or running LLMs on the edge, particularly given its dual GPU setup.
In terms of I/O, the system hosts dual RJ-45 ports for both 2.5GbE and 1GbE LAN, a total of four USB ports, and a DB-9 port for RS-232/422/485 & RI/5V/12V signals. For display, the MAXER-5100 provides HDMI, VGA, and DP 1.4 outputs.
With respect to expansion, the MAXER-5100’s M.2 2280/2242 M-Key and HDD bays are joined by one 8-lane PCIe Gen 4 slot and two PCIe Gen 3 slots (one 4-lane and one 1-lane), as well as an M.2 2230 E-Key that can be populated with modules for Wi-Fi, 5G, or other wireless communication modules.
At just 305mm x 95mm x 276mm, the MAXER-5100 is remarkably compact. Despite this, the system delivers the airflow and heat management required to operate at full capacity due to a custom-designed thermal solution made up of both CPU and system fans engineered to produce minimal noise.
