Efficient, Low-latency PCIe Switching

EnsembleSeries™ SFM6126 switch is a critical building block in forming a composable, embedded data center architecture for artificial intelligence (AI), sensor fusion and other big data processing applications. Onboard XMC I/O sites and mezzanine switching features enable direct, low-latency PCIe data distribution that target CPU, GPU, FPGA and storage devices, bypassing store-and-forward approaches in CPU memory.

Integrating the SFM6126 with other EnsembleSeries OpenVPX modules, such as Intel® Xeon® Scalable-powered multifunction modules and powerful GPU co-processors, delivers rugged, high performance embedded edge computing capability to aerospace and defense platforms operating in the most inhospitable environments.

Extreme Embedded Switch Fabric Performance

SFM6126 modules switch the control and expansion planes with an efficient PCIe architecture that delivers a performance boost to OpenVPX subsystems. Use the XMC sites for mounting mezzanines, including the EnsembleSeries IOM-400, for distribution of wideband I/O transparently and holistically to other PCIe-connected devices – including CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs and storage arrays. This ability to mirror a composable data center architecture is critical for remote deployment of the most contemporary AI and big data processing algorithms.
