Product Information • SCL-RHYTHM • M.2 NVMe & Quad M12 Gigabit Ethernet

General

The SCL-RHYTHM is a mezzanine side card for

EKF CPU boards, provided with a socket for a

PCI Express® based M.2 mass storage module,

and four independent Gigabit Ethernet

controllers for universal networking.

The SCL-RHYTHM is suitable for EKF CPU cards

such as the SC4-CONCERTO or SC5-FESTIVAL,

which are equipped with two HSE (high speed

expansion) mezzanine connectors, for eight

PCIe® Gen3 lanes.

The M.2 socket can accommodate an NVMe

type SSD module up to the 2280 form factor,

with a PCIe® x4 Gen3 interface for superior data

transfer rates. When used as main mass storage

device, the NVMe SSD can speed up the overall

system performance dramatically.

Four I210-IT networking controllers supporting

TSN Gigabit Ethernet are wired to X-coded M12

front panel connectors, for rugged applications

such as railway and transportation.
