The vx 2 is a scalable rental server built on the vx 4 chassis, designed to let productions tailor technical capacity to their needs. It pairs a multi-core Intel Xeon processor with high memory and flexible storage and networking, making it suitable for real-time playback, media servers, and graphics-heavy workflows.

Key Features

• Processor: Intel® Xeon® at 2.5 GHz, providing reliable multi-threaded performance for rendering and realtime tasks.
• Memory: 48GB DDR4 RAM to support large scenes, multiple applications, and concurrent processes.
• Storage: 2x 128GB SSD internal system drives, plus a 1x 3.84TB removable NVMe SSD (default) for high-speed media and easy transfer between units.
• General network: 1x 1Gb/sec Ethernet and 2x 10Gb/sec Ethernet for standard connectivity and high-bandwidth transfer.
• High-speed network: 2x 25Gb/sec Ethernet for low-latency, high-throughput media streaming and distributed workflows.
• Chassis: Built on the industry-leading vx 4 platform, allowing scalable configurations to match production scale.

Use Cases

• Virtual production and LED volume: High-speed networking and NVMe storage reduce latency and support large texture and media streams.
• On-site playback and show control: Stable CPU and ample RAM help maintain smooth playback across multi-layer timelines.
• Temporary render nodes: Removable high-capacity NVMe storage simplifies media staging and rapid turnarounds between locations.
• Live events: Redundant network paths and high throughput support multi-camera and multi-feed environments.
