Commercial Orders Open: SAXON Q has opened orders for the SXQ128 and SXQ512, described by the company as the first diamond-based NV-center quantum computers to exceed 10 qubits.Room-Temperature Operation: Both systems operate at ambient temperature, eliminating the need for cryogenic cooling infrastructure.Modular Multi-Core Design: A proprietary multi-core quantum operating system coordinates computation across cores, with eight locally entangled qubits per core on the SXQ128 and 16 on the SXQ512.SAXON Q, a Leipzig-based developer of diamond quantum systems, has opened commercial orders for its SXQ128 and SXQ512 quantum computers, which the company lists with aggregate qubit counts of 128 and 512 respectively. The company describes these as the first diamond-based nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center quantum computers to exceed 10 qubits. The systems operate at room temperature and eliminate the need for cryogenic cooling. SAXON Q highlights potential applications including quantum machine learning workloads, chemistry simulations, and materials research.The SAXON Q platform uses a multi-core architecture in which a proprietary multi-core quantum operating system coordinates computation across multiple quantum processing cores. According to the company, the SXQ128 provides eight locally entangled qubits per core while the SXQ512 provides 16 per core; the headline 128- and 512-qubit figures represent aggregate counts across modular cores rather than a single fully entangled register. Both units are modular by design, allowing organizations to begin with the SXQ128 and expand capacity by upgrading the diamond chip or adding cores. Nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond supply optically controllable spin qubits that function under ambient conditions. The systems eliminate cryogenic infrastructure while still relying on standard photonics and microwave control hardware.Each SAXON Q quantum system is custom built and configured to individual requirements. The SXQ128 is available to order now, with delivery within three months of order placement. The SXQ512 is available to order, with deliveries beginning in Q2 2027. The modular architecture is intended to provide a flexible entry point that can scale with organizational needs.
