Smart-1 700-S
Dedicated management for up to 10 gateways, with centralised logs, mirrored storage and 1U hardware.
Overview
The Smart-1 700-S organises policies and logs for an infrastructure with a small number of gateways on a dedicated on-premises platform. Base supports five gateways and Plus supports ten. Its two 4 TB HDDs provide 4 TB of usable capacity in RAID 1; memory can grow from 16 to 32 GB. For remote administration, it includes a Lights Out Management channel and redundant BIOS images. Both power supplies are internal and fixed, an important detail for maintenance planning. Selection criteria: Choose this model for an estate of five to ten gateways; account for planned expansion and log load separately. Size retention based on 4 TB of usable capacity, considering peaks, indexing and the SmartEvent architecture. If power supply replacement without shutdown is required, compare the 700-M: the 700-S uses fixed power supplies.
