Advanced 3U VPX Graphics Card Featuring NVIDIA ConnectX-7 SmartNIC
The Condor GR2S-A4500-ETH represents a robust OpenVPX 3U form factor graphics and GPGPU solution, leveraging the cutting-edge NVIDIA® Ampere™ architecture alongside the NVIDIA® ConnectX®-7 SmartNIC. This configuration facilitates rapid data transmission rates of up to 100 Gbps. At its core, the card is powered by the NVIDIA Ampere A4500 GPU, wich boasts 16 GB of GDDR6 graphics memory equipped with error Correction Code (ECC), 46 RT Cores, 184 Tensor Cores, and an remarkable 5,888 CUDA® cores. Furthermore, the NVIDIA Ampere A4500 GPU is compatible with PCI Express Gen 4 and supports NVIDIA GPUDirect™ RDMA, achieving a remarkable performance of up to 17.66 TFLOPS in FP32 single floating-point calculations per slot. The Condor GR2S-A4500 is tailored for high-performance embedded computing (HPEC) applications, especially in C5ISR mission processing, enabling low-latency GPGPU processing, real-time ray tracing, deep learning (DL), and AI inferencing.
Equipped with the NVIDIA® connectx®-7 SmartNIC, the Condor GR2S-A4500-ETH enhances data transfer speeds and optimizes storage performance through NVIDIA GPUDirect™ RDMA and RoCE. The ConnectX-7 architecture integrates an embedded PCIe Switch along with SmartNIC functionalities, which improves board efficiency while minimizing the overall power consumption (lower SWaP) of the card. It supports both 40/100Gb Ethernet DataPlane interfaces and is fully compatible with OpenVPX VITA connectors. Additionally, the design of the Condor GR2S-A4500-ETH adheres to the SOSA™ technical Standard slot profiles 14.6.11 and 14.6.13, ensuring compliance with industry standards.
