WOLF Advanced Technology Launches Cutting-Edge SOSA™ Compliant Modules

WOLF Advanced Technology, a frontrunner in High Performance Embedded Compute (HPEC) and artificial intelligence (AI) solutions tailored for extreme environments, has introduced seven innovative VPX and XMC modules. These modules are engineered to enhance the efficiency and dependability of applications in synthetic vision, C4ISR, radar processing, autonomous operations, AI, and situational awareness.

Enhanced Performance and Versatility

The newly unveiled WOLF modules will incorporate advanced platforms such as the NVIDIA RTX™ A4500, NVIDIA RTX™ A2000, NVIDIA® ConnectX®, and NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier™ Industrial. system integrators and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) are expected to experience considerable advancements in HPEC and AI capabilities per slot, achieving network speeds of up to 100GbE, rapid data transfers via PCIe Gen4, and a novel cooling system. These features collectively enhance system flexibility, scalability, reliability, and security.

Greg Maynard, WOLF’s Chief Technology Officer, remarked, “The SOSA standard represents the future, and our team is pioneering this future by equipping integrators and OEMs with the tools to process over twice the data, achieve more than double the effective performance per slot, operate in elevated temperatures, and utilize the latest software libraries for workload distribution and scaling.”

“We are introducing scalable and adaptable HPEC and AI processing modules interconnected with the fastest fabrics,along with software-enabled scalability and straightforward technology upgrades. I take immense pride in what WOLF has achieved with this launch.”
