At the BW2025 Expo pre-show media briefing, MAXSUN unveiled its new MoDT Dual-Card Mini Station, a compact workstation designed for demanding workloads. Built on the Intel platform, the system integrates a high-end processor and dual graphics cards within a chassis smaller than 20 liters.
The Mini Station is powered by the Intel Core Ultra 9 285HX processor, part of the Arrow Lake-HX series. This chip offers 8 performance cores and 16 efficiency cores, providing the processing capacity needed for multi-threaded applications and data-heavy tasks.
For graphics, the workstation uses two Intel Arc Pro B60 Milestone 24G cards, configured as a dual setup branded Arc Pro B60. Together, these deliver a total of 48GB video memory. This configuration is intended to handle workloads such as large-scale model processing and high-concurrency operations requiring extended processing sessions.
The graphics cards feature a cooling system with dual fans, nickel-plated composite heat pipes, and a metal backplate to maintain thermal performance during continuous operation. This setup supports stable performance while minimizing noise levels.
Expansion options include one M.2 PCIe 5.0×4 slot and two M.2 PCIe 4.0×4 slots for storage upgrades. The system also provides two SlimSAS SFF-8654 4i connectors supporting PCIe 4.0×4. External connectivity is delivered through dual Thunderbolt 5 and dual Thunderbolt 4 ports, enabling a combined theoretical bandwidth of up to 192Gbps for high-speed data transfers and peripheral support.
MAXSUN noted that the Mini Station is designed to deliver a balance of processing power, compact design, and quiet operation. It is targeted at professional environments such as small to medium-sized businesses requiring scalable model deployment and technical teams performing resource-intensive tasks.
Details regarding pricing and availability are expected to be shared during the full BW2025 Expo later this week.
