Cobalt RaQ 2

Cobalt RaQ 2


The Cobalt RaQ 2 is a 1U rackmount server product line developed by Cobalt Networks, Inc. (later purchased by Sun Microsystems) featuring a modified Red Hat Linux operating system and a proprietary GUI for server management. The RaQ 2 systems were equipped with MIPS CPUs.

The Cobalt RaQ2 was the third product line produced by Cobalt Networks; the first was the Cobalt Qube followed by the Cobalt RaQ. The introduction of the Cobalt RaQ2 was a success for the company. Many ISPs purchased and stacked the units in their computer rooms and used the RaQ 2 units to sell dedicated hosting services to their clients.

This unit was replaced by the RaQ3, then RaQ4, then the XTR, which was finally replaced by the RaQ 550 which was then discontinued by Sun Microsystems.
