Concurrent Technologies Inc. in Woburn, Mass., is introducing the AM 31x/x0x Advanced Mezzanine Card (AdvancedMC) embedded computer with the 2nd generation Intel Core processor for security, communications, industrial automation, and medical applications where fast data processing is a key requirement.The AdvancedMC.0/.1/.2/.3-compliant single-board computer offers eight PCI Express lanes (AdvancedMC.1 Type 8), configurable as 2-by-(x4) or 8-by-(x1) ports, and supporting Gen 1 or Gen 2 data rates. Also on the board are two 1000 Base-BX channels (AdvancedMC.2 Type E2) and 4-by-SATA (AdvancedMC.3 Type S2) interfaces.The AM 31x/x0x AdvancedMC single-board computer offers either the Intel Core i7-2715QE processor, Intel Core-i7 2655LE processor, Intel Core i7-2610UE processor, or the Intel Core i5-2515E processor. The AM 31x/x0x also incorporates the Intel Series 6 Express chipset, and as much as 8 gigabytes of DDR3-1333 ECC SDRAM, all within one-width AdvancedMC form factor.

The AM 31x/x0x is available in single width, mid and full height formats and also available in two temperature grades: -25 to 70 degrees Celsis (E-Series) or 0 to 55 C. Operating system software support includes Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows Embedded Standard 7, Linux, and VxWorks.

The AM 31x/x0x can offer greater than 150 percent CPU performance and potentially 250 percent increase in graphical performance over previous Intel Core processor based AdvancedMC products, Concurrent officials say.

The AM 31x/x0x AdvancedMC mezzanine board computer is for MicroTCA- and AdvancedTCA-based telecommunications such as IPTV, digital media servers, media gateways, broadband – Long Term Evolution (LTE) or LTE-Advanced, wireless base stations, and test systems for wireline and wireless networks.
