White Paper: Real-Time Defense Systems Response Will Require PCIe 5.0

June 21, 2024

17min read time (2250 words)

Today’s modern defense systems exploit massive volumes of data to provide warfighters
with more accurate, complete intel. Examples include advanced radar object detection and
AI-driven threat identification. Field-deployed computers receive inputs from multiple types of sensor systems, including radar, lidar, visual imagery, EO/IR and EW. They also need to access stored data for comparison and analysis purposes. Solving bandwidth challenges at the system interconnect is critical to overall system performance and helps ensure mission success.

This paper examines the critically important interconnect technology and ecosystem built around Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) standards and specifically, how the emerging PCIe 5.0 protocol benefits new generation applications.

Read this white paper to learn: 

  • The current need for more inter-component bandwidth
  • How AI demands more bandwidth
  • PCIe's role in defense Systems and performance benchmarks 
  • Why a standards based approach is needed for rapid Gen 5.0 integration
  • Industry adoption of PCIe 5.0
  • The emerging Gen 5.0 ecosystem with Intel, NVIDIA, Broadcomm and others
  • Mercury's Gen 5.0 RES X08 rugged rack servers
  • How to implement next-gen technology with supply chain integrity
