Product Range

Boston Limited and Escape Studios are proud to unveil a new range of RenderServer render farms, the Escape RenderServer 5420 and 5440.

Our custom built range of platforms are based on a unique 1.7” high 1U server chassis permitting two servers within a single chassis. This unique design approach results in a platform that cannot be beaten in price, power, energy consumption and performance.

The Escape RenderServers feature Intel’s latest range of Quad and Dual core processors and up to a staggering 16 Intel Xeon processors cores operating at up to a phenomenal 2.83GHz.

By housing two servers within the same chassis the Escape RenderServer range shares a single power efficient power supply between them. Alongside with numerous other performance enhancing and power saving features this helps secure this platform the top slot within the broadcast market.
