VPX processor card uses Raptor Lake Intel processor
Concurrent Technologies in the UK has launched a 3U VPX high-performance Plug In Card based on the 13th generation Intel Core i7 processor to accelerate system designs.
The Hermes card is aimed at system integrators using the SOSA specification as the basis for its own ITAR-free systems that require a high performance processor. Typical applications include situational awareness, command and control, mission computing and rugged storage.
- ITAR-free integrated vision system for SOSA designs
- 3U VPX switch has simple command line configuration
- 6U CompactPCI cPCI board has dual XMC/PMC slots
Hermes uses the Intel Core i7-13800HRE 14 core processor, formerly known as Raptor Lake, with three times the number of accelerator engines and twice the memory capacity. The additional capability provides an opportunity to consolidate all the processing functionality onto a single Hermes instead of requiring a processor plus an accelerator.
The card includes a 100GBASE-KR4 Ethernet Data plane with four lanes of Gen 4 PCI Express for an expansion plane for high speed communication. There is an XMC Site for additional I/O resources and optional M.2 module for storage with Write/Protect and Opal 2.0 compliance
Hermes will be available for two different system level cooling standards, further extending the use cases to even more demanding environments and applications.
“Hermes is the latest high-performance embedded solution from Concurrent Technologies that reinforces our commitment to delivering leading-edge products to market at an increasingly swift cadence,” said Miles Adcock, CEO of Concurrent Technologies. “The development path of Hermes has been carefully coordinated to coincide with the release of Intel’s launch cycle and provides an exciting foundation for future system-level solutions.”
