AUGSBURG, Germany – Kontron in Augsburg, Germany, is introducing the VX305C-40G 3U OpenVPX single-board computer module for military server-class computing and digital signal processing (DSP).
The ITAR-free VX305C-40G is an OpenVPX computer board that marries a 40 Gigabit Ethernet port and user I/O to the 12-core version of the Intel Xeon D processor
Designed to the soon-to-be-released VITA 65 slot profile SLT3-PAY-1F1F2U1TU1T1U1T-14.2.16 I/O Intensive computer board profile, the VX305C-40G combines the 12-core Intel Xeon D-1559 processor with a 40 Gigabit Ethernet data plane.
This combination makes this single-board computer suitable for virtual machine or containerized architectures that can take advantage of isolated workloads configured to share common resources dynamically.
