Board-level computer uses a double standard

Though sticking to a double standard is typically thought of as negative, it’s definitely a positive if we’re talking about Themis Computer’s new T2VPX board-level computer – which supports both the VITA 65 (OpenVPX) and VITA 46 (VPX) standards. One thing that sets the T2VPX apart is that it’s in the relatively small group of OpenVPX products announced to date (though we expect OpenVPX to swiftly proliferate the market). Something else that differentiates T2VPX: It utilizes both the Solaris 10 and Linux operating systems. And its processor is yet another differentiator: a Sun UltraSPARC T2 CMT (Chip Multi-Threating) processor at 1.2 GHz.

Putting the pieces together, the T2VPX system architecture comprises a VPX I/O fabric, 64 threads, and up to 8 processor cores. Not too surprisingly, Themis says its rugged T2VPX is designed to outperform systems founded on VME 64. Other highlights include fully buffered 32 GB of DDR2 with ECC, onboard 1.8” SSD/HDD support, optional carrier boards for more I/), and a temperature range of -40 °C to +95 °C.
