Kontron Extends Its Family Of 11th Gen Intel® Core™ VX3060 Rugged Computers

Kontron, a leading global provider of IoT / Embedded Computing Technology (ECT), announces the VX3060, a high performance 3U VPX Single Board Computer, featuring 11th Gen Intel® SoC technology, designed for demanding SWaP-C defense and railway applications.

Based on the low power Intel® Core™ i7-1185GRE quad-core processor, the VX3060 supports specialized Vector Neural Network Instructions (VNNI) and Doubled Signal Processing performance (AVX512). Its Gen12 Gfx graphics engine provides up to 8K multi-head display interfaces and ensures maximum performance for computer vision and media processing - twice that of the previous generation. 11th Gen Intel® Core™ U-Series also feature a software configurable TDP from 12 W to 28 W which makes the VX3060 adaptative for all kind of applications.

VX3060 is compatible with the previous generation architecture and with the following VITA65 OpenVPX profiles: SLT3-PAY-2F2U-14.2.3, SLT3-PAY-1F1F2U-14.2.4 and SLT3-PAY-1F1F2U1TU1T1U1T-14.2.16.

Christophe Ferrande, Product Manager at Kontron says: "We are proud to introduce a new VPX computing blade complementing our family of products based on the 11th Gen Intel® SoC technology. Deploying with the VX3060 is a sure way to serve a vast choice of applications with a single computer blade for years to come".

The VX3060 is available in air-cooled and conduction-cooled versions. Its multiple extensions allow developers to easily address a wide range of demanding mission critical applications. VX3060 can provide Hardware Root of Trust thanks to its TPM module and Kontron SEC-Line elements. A rich Linux™ BSP allows instant evaluation and benchmarking. A continuous flow of health data is available thanks to CMON-Line, its integrated remotely accessible CBIT service.

Other computers based on the 11th Gen Intel® processor include the VX3060-S2, a 3U VPX blade supporting the SOSA™ standard and the DARC™ VX208, a high-performance, rugged computer system.
