IoT

One of the new challenges arising with the use of edge, fog, and cloud architectures is the connection of components to each other and to the public cloud. An important element of developing a solution capturing all pieces is the IoT framework susietec

At the field, or edge level, data is collected by industrial computers, e.g. by gateways, which process, filter, analyze and act on these data in real-time right at the device.

Edge, fog and cloud applications demand increasing computing power. The interfaces to sensors or machines often require non-standard solutions. Especially in smaller machines, space is limited or restricted in some dimension and need a special solution.

Today, the connection from the sensor device to the embedded cloud takes place via real-time data communication, on sensor and edge level - for example Industrial Ethernet or fieldbuses - and gateways , which provide the transformation of real time data into the informational area.

VX3058

3U VPX Intel® Xeon® Processor Single Board Computer

Mouseover Zoom loading...

Specifications

Octo-Core 1.6/1.7 GHz/35W
Fit for Virtual Machines and HPEC Applications
Extended Life Cycle and 10-year Silicon Reliability
Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet, x8 PCI Express Gen3 Bandwidth
8 Core Xeon® Processor D, up to 32GB soldered DDR4 with ECC
Air-Cooled and Rugged Conduction-Cooled versions

Kontron's 3u VPX Single Board Computer VX3058 is based on the highly integrated 8-core Intel^® Xeon^® D architecture, supporting Dual 10 Gigabit Ethernet, high bandwidth PCI Express 3.0, and high speed DDR4 memory. It is consequently SWaP-C optimized with versatile mezzanine options for XMC, storage, graphics, M.2, and I/O. Combined with Kontron's advanced switch technologies and VxFabric^TMfor significantly higher I/O bandwidth, and combined with centralized health management, VX3058 is simply the best choice for high performance embedded computing platforms.

VX3058 brings server class applications into the battlefield

Typical programs are :

radar, sonar

imaging systems

airborne fighter and UAV radar

long term programs in harsh environments

VX3058 and leading edge architecture for Multi-CPU computing nodes

VX3058 provides two 10 GBASE-KR ports and 8 lanes Gen3 PCI Express to the backplane. A 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch and a PCI Express Switch can be complemented with two respective single star data planes. Thanks to Kontron VxFabric^TM, a unique API extends the TCP/IP protocol over the PCI Express infrastructure. Kontron’s sample turnkey system StarVX implements this architecture, enabling a significantly higher I/O bandwidth. While computing power has been continuously increasing in the past, and I/O bandwidth did not, the balance of both is back again by Kontron StarVX. VX3058 makes it a powerful, leading edge Multi-CPU computing node architecture.

Long term programs: high reliability and low Total-Cost-of-Ownership

Kontron provides a Long Term Supply program service (LTS) for over 15 years. Intel communicates silicon reliability is 10 years. A comprehensive Health Management is optionally available to support easy field maintenance. All this makes the VX3058 the ideal candidate for long term programs.
