ASUS RS300-E12-RS4-1G4 1U Rack Server
Overview
The ASUS RS300-E12-RS4-1G4 is a compact 1U rack-mount server designed for surveillance and edge compute workloads where reliability and redundancy matter. At 33 inches wide by 24 inches deep and 7 inches tall, it fits standard 19-inch server racks. The dual power supply design ensures your NVR or video analytics application stays online even if one PSU fails—no downtime waiting for replacement. Four 1-gigabit Ethernet ports provide wired connectivity for multiple network segments (management, camera ingest, storage, export), and two M.2 slots support fast local storage for operating systems and cache. This configuration suits deployment scenarios where you need compute density without sacrificing fault tolerance or network flexibility.
Compatibility
The RS300-E12-RS4-1G4 integrates with standard surveillance software stacks: Milestone XProtect, Genetec Security Center, Hanwha Wisenet, Axis Companion, and ONVIF-compatible VMS platforms. The dual PSU architecture works with any enterprise-grade NVR software running on Linux or Windows. Four independent 1G Ethernet ports support network segmentation (isolating camera traffic from backup and management traffic), a best practice in large camera deployments. M.2 slots accept standard NVMe drives for OS and database acceleration. The TAA-compliant certification confirms suitability for U.S. federal and government procurement workflows.
Installation Notes
The server measures 33.00 × 24.00 × 7.00 inches (L × W × H) and weighs 34.05 pounds—plan for adequate rack rail support. Standard 19-inch EIA rack spacing accommodates this form factor. Dual PSU design requires two independent power circuits or redundant UPS feeds to realize fault tolerance. Four Gigabit Ethernet ports require standard Cat5e or Cat6 cabling; no PoE injection on these ports. M.2 drives install directly without external adapters. Verify rack cooling capacity given server power draw; thermal design assumes standard data center airflow.
