The XPedite7472 is a secure and high-performance, 3U VPX-REDI, single board computer based on the 3rd generation Intel® Core™ i7 Ivy Bridge processor. The XPedite7472 is an optimal choice for computationally heavy applications requiring maximum data and information protection. With integrated SecureCOTS™ technology, the XPedite7472 protects data from being modified or observed and provides an ideal solution when stringent security capabilities are required.The XPedite7472 includes a customizable SmartFusion® security FPGA, which can control and monitor the Core™ i7 subsystem, as well as host custom functions such as data encryption. The XPedite7472 also accommodates up to 8 GB of DDR3-1600 ECC SDRAM in two channels and up to 32 GB of secure, onboard, SATA NAND flash.The XPedite7472 provides numerous I/O interfaces through the backplane connectors, including Gigabit Ethernet ports, USB 2.0 ports, SATA, graphics, and RS-232/422/485 serial ports. The XPedite7472 supports additional expansion from an integrated XMC/PMC site. Both the PMC and XMC sites include I/O mapped directly to the VPX backplane connectors, and the XMC site additionally includes a x8 PCIe connection to the Intel® Core™ i7 processor. Wind River VxWorks and Linux Board Support Packages (BSPs) are available, as well as Microsoft Windows drivers.
