XUSPL4


Overview

Xilinx UltraScale Low-Profile PCIe Board with Dual QSFP and DDR4

The XUSPL4 from BittWare is a low-profile PCIe x8 card based on the Xilinx Virtex or Kintex UltraScale FPGA.

The board offers up to 32 GBytes of memory, sophisticated clocking and timing options, and two front panel QSFP cages, each supporting up to 100 Gbps (4×25) – including 100GbE. The XUSPL4 also incorporates a Board Management Controller (BMC) for advanced system monitoring, which greatly simplifies platform integration and management.

Typical Applications
Network Processing
Network Security
Storage
Broadcast
Acceleration
Signals Intelligence
