Aquarius AQdesk K740

On October 23, 2025, Aquarius presented a solution in a range of specialized computers - Aquarius AQdesk K740. This solution was designed specifically for use in the data center infrastructure. The device is made in a compact Rackmount 2U package, which provides optimal placement in server racks.

The device is based on the Aquarius AQB760M motherboard, developed and manufactured by the company. It supports processors Intel 12, 13 and 14 generations, as well as modern memory of the DDR5 standard. This ensures high performance and scalability.

Configuration flexibility is one of the key advantages of this model. The computer is equipped with support for removable drives, which simplifies the maintenance and modernization of the system. Also, for integration into specialized APCS systems, it is possible to install DC 24V power supplies.

A rich set of interfaces provides ample peripheral connectivity. The basic configuration provides for:

• 10 USB ports;
• Two HDMI ports;
• DisplayPort;
• VGA analog video output;
• Network interface RJ-45.

The package can be supplemented with optional components, including support for wireless interfaces, the installation of hardware and software modules of trusted loading (AMDD) and the addition of a COM port.

This makes Aquarius AQdesk K740 a versatile solution that can adapt to different tasks and user requirements.

The launch of Aquarius AQdesk K740 is an important step in the development of the Aquarius product line. Our development focus has been on the needs of customers for whom reliability, scalability, and configuration flexibility are critical. Aquarius AQdesk K740 is ideal for building modern data centers, as it optimally combines performance, compactness and functionality, "commented Nikolai Petrov, Director of the Department for Client Device Development at Aquarius.

2024: Brand Registration

In early March 2024, it became known that the Russian manufacturer of IT equipment "Aquarius" filed applications for registration of more than 10 new brands under which it is planned to sell consumer electronics. Products will be offered on marketplaces and in online stores.

According to the Vedomosti newspaper, the new trademarks include Aquarius AQbase, Aquarius AQbios, Aquarius AQdesk, Aquarius AQstor, and Chelobrek. Brands cover a wide range of consumer technology: smart speakers, smart cards, smart glasses, smartphones, including foldable, smart watches and other electronics.

Market participants believe that due to the listed trademarks, Aquarius intends to create a recognizable brand for the retail segment. In the future, based on such an ecosystem, the company may launch its own application store. Olga Shernek, product director of the Aquarius group, says that the company's product range is expanding rapidly, and therefore the introduction of a new system for categorizing and designating devices is required.

At the same time, Sergey Vilyanov, an analyst at Fintech Lab accelerator, believes that the retail market is far from what Aquarius has traditionally done. The company produces primarily personal computers, monitors, all-in-ones, laptops, tablets, servers, storage systems and switches. Aquarius operates in the b2b segment and supplies solutions to state customers. As Vilyanov notes, the company can spend several billion rubles to study the consumer market. In November 2023, Aquarius announced plans to invest 40 billion rubles by 2026 in expanding production and developing new products. We are talking, in particular, about smart TVs, speakers and smartwatches.^[1]
