VX305H-40G

Server-Class Power for High-Performance Computing

Featuring the 12 core version of the Intel® Xeon® D processor

family (formerly Broadwell-DE) and developed in alignment with

the SOSA™ technical standard, the VX305H-40G is a compute

intensive SBC compliant with the VITA 65 (OpenVPX) slot profile

SLT3-PAY-1F1U1S1S1U1U2F1H-14.6.11-n. The VX305H-40G combines

server-class processing with a 40 Gigabit Ethernet Data Plane and

an extra-wide 8-lane PCI Express® Gen3 Expansion Plane. The

VX305H-40G also features an XMC site for non-volatile storage or

other expansion options not requiring rear-panel I/O. The result is

a powerful, flexible, single board computing platform suitable for a

wide range of embedded applications.

Ideal for Virtual Machines and HPEC Applications

At the silicon level, the Xeon® D platform server heritage allows for

advanced applications such as virtual machines and software

containers.

It

can

run

diverse

software workloads which

dynamically share common resources or strictly bind to pre-

defined resource usage profiles. Application can easily adapt to

hardware evolution such as CPU count, memory, I/O availability, or

even form-factor. Virtualization and container technologies

enabled by the Xeon D processor transform embedded solutions

into a future-proof solution, preserving investment into an

application code base.

Typical demanding applications include:

 Radar, sonar, and other sensor processing applications

 Imaging systems

 Airborne fighter and UAV radar

 Long term programs in harsh environments

Long Term Programs: High reliability, low TCO

Kontron provides a robust program to increase reliability and to

lower Total-Cost-of-Ownership (TCO) for VX305H-40G. Intel silicon

reliability is 10 years, but Kontron offers a Long Term Supply service

(LTS) for over 15 years. A comprehensive Health Management

program is optionally available to support easy multi-year field

maintenance. All this makes the VX305H-40G the ideal candidate

for long term programs, and brings server class applications into

the battlefield for many years to come.

VITA 46.11 Health Management

The VX305H-40G features a VITA 46.11 compatible Intelligent

Platform Management Controller (IPMC) for centralized system

health management. Supporting Tier-1 and -2 commands (and

more), the Kontron-designed IPMC (both hardware and firmware),

along with a comprehensive and flexible Power-On Built-In Test

(PBIT) package brings a new level of system health and

management capabilities to rugged deployed systems thanks to

an innovative “Reference Learn” approach.

VITA 48-REDI Conduction-cooled Versions

The high-performance VX305H-40G server blade is available as

Conduction-Cooled Plug-in units according to VITA 48.2 Type 2,

Secondary Side Retainer, which enables the VX305H-40G to

sustain 70°C card edge temperature according to VITA 47 depending

on the processing load and XMC support. The VX305H-40G is also

available with a VITA 48 Ruggedized Enhanced Design Implemen-

tation (REDI) Two-Level Maintenance bottom cover option. A

lab-grade air-cooled version is also available.

Kontron VPX Ecosystem

VX305H-40G boards are compatible with all Kontron 3U VPX and

6U VPX building blocks (payload boards, carriers, switches,

backplanes, OS, and drivers). For instance, OpenVPX 3U Rugged

Ethernet Switch features 24x 10 Gbps channels which can be

bound into 40 Gigabit Ethernet links, providing Layer 2 and Layer 3

switching/routing functions. The VX3920 is available both in

Forced Air-Cooled and Rugged Conduction-Cooled versions.
