Intel® Core™i7 Processor-Based 3U Conduction- or Air-Cooled VPX-REDI Module

Description

The XPedite7470 is a high-performance, low-power 3U VPX-REDI single-board computer based on the Intel® Core™i7 processor (Sandy Bridge) and Intel QM67 (Cougar Point) chipset. With two PCI Express Fat Pipe P1 interconnects and two Gigabit Ethernet ports, the XPedite7470 is ideal for the high-bandwidth and processing intensive applications of today's military and avionics applications. Floating-point intensive applications such as radar, image processing, and signals intelligence will benefit from the performance boost provided by the Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel® AVX) incorporated into the Intel Core™i7 processor.

The XPedite7470 accommodates up to 8 GB of DDR3 ECC SDRAM on two channels to support memory-intensive applications. The XPedite7470 also hosts numerous I/O ports including Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, SATA, graphics, and RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 through the backplane connectors.

The XPedite7470 can be used in either the system slot or peripheral slot of a VPX backplane. Wind River VxWorks, QNX Neutrino, Green Hills INTEGRITY, and Linux Board Support Packages (BSPs) are available, as well as Windows drivers.
