Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRCY) today announced support for the
expanded industrial-grade Intel® Xeon® Processor D-1500 Product
Family (formerly code-named Broadwell DE) with new embedded open
systems architecture (OSA) form factors and configurations. The new
configurations will feature broader processor core count and power
options, greater ruggedness and extended reliability, providing
even more server-class processing power at the tactical edge. The
new Xeon devices are available from the manufacturer for a minimum
of seven years, mitigating diminished manufacturing sources (DMS)
risk, critical for defense electronics systems viability and
supportability.
Mercury’s 3U Ensemble® LDS3506 was the embedded industry’s first
OpenVPX™ processor module with Xeon D-1500 server-class and
low-latency FPGA processing capability to be introduced. The FPGA
resources support main processor off-loading, private and
personalized security and enables the MVRI-optimized switch fabric
to be updated, making this compute module exceptionally versatile
and capable for a variety of high-performance applications. Micro
via radial interconnect (MVRI) technology is OpenVPX-compliant and
enables rugged OpenVPX modules to run switch fabrics at 40Gb/s and
higher.
“Ensemble Series Xeon D compute modules leverage Mercury’s
fourth generation of highly SWaP-efficient packaging technology and
Intel’s Reliability, Availability and Serviceability (RAS) features
to deliver the most reliable, processing-dense and versatile cloud
capabilities right to the tactical edge,” said Ian Dunn, Vice
President of Mercury Systems' Embedded Products Group. “With
Intel’s latest Xeon Processor D-1500 family, a broader selection of
power profiles and device core counts, real-time optimization,
workload consolidation and our unique on-board FPGA resources can
open the door to a host of new possibilities for sensor chain
architects,” he added.
Mercury’s Xeon D-powered Ensemble Series compute engines combine
the best available commercial-item FPGA and general processing
technologies and are ideal for SWaP-constrained applications,
especially those sensitive to performance and latency, including
electronic warfare (EW), electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR), image
intelligence (IMINT), radar and other mission or sensor processing
applications.
“The Intel Xeon Processor D-1500 Product Family with Advanced
Vector Extensions 2 (AVX2), system-on-chip (SoC) architecture and
integrated Platform Controller Hub Technology delivers full
server-class capability,” said Samuel Cravatta, product line
director, Internet of Things Group, Intel. “New industrial-grade
devices with broader power profiles and core count options, when
appropriately packaged, take cloud capabilities to the tactical
edge with more options than ever.”
Customer demonstrations of 3U Ensemble Xeon Processor D-1500
family modules are currently underway, with production units
becoming available before the end of the year in air-cooled,
conduction-cooled, and Air Flow-By™ designs. Additional
configurations, including 6U OpenVPX form factors, are expected to
be announced by Mercury in the near future. All Ensemble sensor
processing chain building blocks are designed and made in America
and support open data movement middleware, including Open MPI and
OpenMPI/OFED™, VITA 46.11 system management and standard optimized
math libraries.
