The XCalibur4740 is a secure, high-performance, 6U VPX-REDI, single board computer based on the Intel® Xeon® D-1700 series (formerly Ice Lake-D) of processors. The XCalibur4740 is an optimal choice for computationally heavy applications requiring maximum data protection.
The XCalibur4740 integrates SecureCOTS™ technology with a Microsemi® PolarFire™ FPGA for hosting custom functions to protect data from being modified or observed and provides an ideal solution when stringent security capabilities are required.
The XCalibur4740 provides incredible speed with two 40GBASE-KR4, two 1000BASE-X, and two 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet ports. It accommodates up to 48 GB of DDR4 ECC SDRAM in three channels and up to 32 GB of onboard SLC NAND flash in addition to numerous I/O ports, including USB 2.0, PCIe, and RS-232/422/485 serial through the backplane connectors. The XCalibur4740 provides additional expansion capabilities by including two integrated XMC/PMC sites. These sites each include a x8 PCIe connection to the Intel® Xeon® D processor and X12d+X8d I/O mapped directly to the VPX backplane connectors. Additionally, each mezzanine site offers a single PMC connector, which provides a build option for P64s or X38s to the VPX backplane connectors.
Wind River VxWorks and X-ES Enterprise Linux (XEL) Board Support Packages (BSPs) are available.
