Tyan B7106G24EV4HR 1U Dual-Socket Xeon SP Server Platform

Overview

The Tyan B7106G24EV4HR is a 1U rack-mount server platform built around a dual-socket Intel Xeon Scalable (Xeon SP) design, intended for data center and edge-compute deployments where rack density matters more than chassis depth. At 58 lb, this is a fully populated commercial-grade chassis, not a stripped-down barebone shell — plan your rack lift and rail hardware accordingly rather than assuming a one-person install. The B7106G24EV4HR fits into environments running video management platforms, virtualization clusters, or general enterprise workloads where dual-CPU headroom is a requirement, not a luxury. If you're speccing a rack for a video wall controller, an NVR farm, or a VM host cluster, this is the class of hardware you're looking at.

Key Features

• Dual-Socket Xeon SP Architecture: Two Intel Xeon Scalable sockets on one motherboard mean you get to split workloads across processors instead of maxing out a single-socket box — the right call when you're running recording, analytics, and management services on the same chassis and don't want one workload starving another of CPU cycles.
• 1U Rack Form Factor: A 1U footprint means you get more compute per rack unit than a 2U or tower alternative — critical when colocation space or server room rack space is billed or budgeted by the U.
• 58 lb Chassis Weight: At 58 lb, the B7106G24EV4HR is heavier than a diskless 1U shell, which tells you this is a build-out chassis meant to carry real drive and memory load — factor that weight into rail kit ratings and into how many people you schedule for the rack-and-stack.

Integration & Compatibility

Dual-socket Xeon SP platforms like the B7106G24EV4HR are the standard building block behind network video recorders and VMS server back-ends that need more than single-socket compute, and they pair naturally with a managed PoE switch stack feeding cameras into the recording tier. If you're scoping total rack compute alongside camera count, a PoE planning guide is worth reviewing before you finalize the switch and server split. For teams comparing this platform against other rack servers in the same class, weigh socket count and U-height against your actual workload concurrency rather than defaulting to the biggest box on the price sheet. Full CPU model support, memory channel configuration, storage bay count, and network interface specifications for the B7106G24EV4HR were not available in the manufacturer data reviewed for this listing — confirm exact CPU SKU compatibility and I/O configuration directly against the current Tyan documentation for this model before finalizing a build-out, particularly if you're pairing it with a specific Tyan server chipset generation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the B7106G24EV4HR suitable for video management or NVR workloads?

A: Dual-socket Xeon SP 1U platforms in this class are commonly deployed as VMS and NVR server back-ends where multi-core headroom is needed.

James Everett

The B7106G24EV4HR crosses my desk most often as a back-end compute question, not a camera question — someone's sizing a rack to run VMS recording and analytics off dual Xeon SP sockets instead of a single-socket box that's already pegged.

Technical Highlights:

• Dual-Socket Xeon SP: Two sockets let you dedicate one CPU to recording ingest and the other to analytics or virtualization without contention — the standard pattern once a single-socket 1U runs out of headroom.
• 1U Height: Keeps rack density high, which matters when you're stacking this next to switch and NVR gear and every U is accounted for on the elevation diagram.
• 58 lb Chassis: That weight tells you it's a loaded build, not an empty shell — budget a two-person lift and a properly rated rail kit rather than treating it like a lightweight 1U.

Deployment Considerations:

• Confirm exact CPU SKU, memory, and drive bay configuration against current Tyan documentation before finalizing a bill of materials — those details weren't in the spec sheet on hand for this listing.
• 1U dual-socket chassis run hot under full load; verify your rack's cooling and airflow plan can support two Xeon SP CPUs before committing rack space.

Reach for the B7106G24EV4HR when you're building a dedicated VMS or NVR compute node for a mid-to-large camera deployment and need dual-CPU headroom in a single rack U — not for a light-duty edge box where a single-socket unit would do.
