GE Intelligent Platforms has recently launched the SBC626 rugged 6U VPX single board computer (SBC).
Featuring the latest quad-core fourth generation Intel Core i7 processor (‘Haswell’), it is said to provide outstanding performance per watt while helping to minimize size, weight and power (SWaP) in deployed subsystems – making it ideal for constrained environments such as manned and unmanned vehicles.
Delivering enhanced processor performance, improved graphics performance, superior connectivity and upgraded security within the same power envelope as previous generations of GE’s SBC family will allow the SBC626 not only to address existing command/control applications, but also more demanding signal processing requirements such as ISR (intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance), sonar and radar as well as demanding industrial and commercial applications.
The SBC626 allows customers to do more with less – more processing power, more bandwidth, more graphics capability that can enable fewer slots to be used and potentially make an important contribution to reducing size, weight and power.
That allows subsystems to deliver more capability with the same size, weight and power, or to deliver a level of capability that previously required more size, weight and power.
The SBC626 includes an optional Security Hub FPGA. The FPGA combines a mix of passive and active features to allow customers to develop a robust on-board anti-tamper capability.
GE Intelligent Platforms is represented in Australia and New Zealand by Metromatics.
