The CX2072 has an Intel® Xeon® CPU with a clock rate of 2.1 GHz (12 cores).

A fan with ball bearings and speed monitoring is integrated into the basic CPU

module. In addition to the CPU, the basic module also contains the main

memory with a size of 8 GB RAM, optionally available with up to 64 GB.

The controller boots from a CFast flash memory card where both the

operating system as well as user programs and data are stored.

The CPU has an internal 128 kB NOVRAM, which acts as a persistent data

memory if no UPS is used.

The use of TwinCAT 3 allows automation tasks to be distributed across the

various cores of the Intel® Xeon® CPU.

All system modules from the CX2000 series for left- or right-sided functional

extensions can be connected. Internally the modules are connected via PCI

Express® and can be plugged to the CPU in the field.

The power supply for the CPU module comes from a CX2100-0014 power

supply module. Up to two mass storage modules (either CX2550-0010 CFast

modules or CX2550-0020 2½-inch SSD modules) can be plugged in between

the power supply unit and the CPU, allowing the use of up to three mass

storage devices in total.
