The IPN252 is the third generation 6U OpenVPX multiprocessor module from Abaco, combining the latest NVIDIA® 640-core “Maxwell” GPU with the 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ i7 CPU, yielding maximum processing performance in a rugged, single VPX slot.
Targeting a wide range of data-intensive applications, particularly in the Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) domain, the IPN252 delivers the highest available bandwidth between its major components.
The 3rd generation Intel Core i7 CPU and the NVIDIA GPU are connected via a 16- lane PCI Express® Gen 3 switch, which also provides a 16-lane PCI Express Gen 3 port to the VPX expansion plane, and provides an 8-lane PCI Express Gen 3 port to a dualchannel 10 Gigabit Ethernet & InfiniBand® NIC. The PCI Express switch also provides a Gen 3 x8 port to an XMC site.
The 640-core GPU, utilizing NVIDIA’s “Maxwell” architecture, has 2 GB of GDDR5 memory to ensure high-capacity and highbandwidth access to data during massively parallel GPGPU algorithm processing. Using NVIDIA’s GPUDirect®, data from external sources can be streamed directly into GPU memory without the burden of multiple copy operations through system memory, resulting in significantly lower latency and higher throughput. Data sources may be PCI Express or InfiniBand end-points.
The dual-channel 10 Gigabit/InfiniBand NIC also allows complex open architecture systems to be constructed, using OFED RDMA to transfer data in and out of the 16 GB system memory with very low latency and minimal CPU overhead.
With a wide range of open standard software available for the IPN252, systems integrators can rapidly port and deploy their existing code onto this rugged platform, allowing fast-to-deployment solutions.
The IPN252 is available in a range of air- and conduction-cooled extended temperature build standards, with versions to satisfy VITA 46 and VITA 48.
