SBC3511: 3U VPX rugged SBC with Advanced Security and Leading Edge Thermal Management

Abaco Systems announces SBC3511, the 3U OpenVPX rugged single board computer, which provides a unique combination of high performance, advanced security and leading edge thermal management. Target applications for the new platform include C4ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance) and the most demanding industrial applications. The SBC3511’s high performance derives from the new, highly integrated Intel® Xeon® E-2176M 6-core/12-thread processor (formerly known as Coffee Lake) operating at 2.7GHz with TurboBoost up to 4.4GHz, 32 Gbytes of DDR4 RAM and the inclusion of up to 256 Gbytes of nVME SSD. It also features a 40 Gigabit Ethernet data plane. The new single board computer includes a range of security features: the on board Xilinx® Zynq® UltraScale+™ MPSoC’s built-in security capabilities include a physical un-clonable function (PUF), user-accessible hardened cryptographic blocks, asymmetric authentication, side channel attack protection, and other silicon-based AT features. Support is also provided for Intel’s Trusted Execution Technology.
The SBC3511 features a unique thermal management design which allows deterministic high performance even at the extended temperatures. The SBC3511 also includes a x8 PCIe™ Gen 3 XMC site; one USB 2.0 port and one USB 3.1 port; a DisplayPort™ interface; two serial ports; a SATA port; and up to eight GPIO pins. Also included is a rich range of software options: Open Linux® (Fedora), Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS (Linux), Wind River Linux, VxWorks 7, Windows 10 will be available.
