AdvancedIO Systems, Inc. and VMETRO, Inc. have announced an agreement to jointly develop and commercialize 10GbE data recording, playback and analysis systems. Suited for digital signal analysis applications such as ELINT, COMINT, SIGINT, SAR, MTI, SDR as well as medical scanners and industrial inspection systems, these 10GbE recorder systems will utilize AdvancedIO’s 10GbE PMC/XMC family of packet processing modules and VMETRO’s Vortex Open Recorder platforms. This arrangement allows VMETRO to offer the embedded computing market innovative recording, playback and analysis solutions integrating the expertise of each company’s technology.
“By integrating AdvancedIO’s cutting-edge 10GbE technology on our carrier boards and in our systems, we believe we will be able to offer unprecedented solutions to our customers,” said Tom Bohman, VP Business Development for VMETRO.
“AdvancedIO’s ability to process ultra high-speed data complements our solutions exceptionally, increasing our overall offering and also allowing us to pursue new and emerging applications in a growing market.”
The products within VMETRO’s Vortex family of real-time high performance data recorders for analog and digital applications share a common design philosophy that allows mixing and matching of IO, recording engines, storage, and analysis to meet a vast array of program requirements. The Vortex family includes an open architecture with custom IO and targeted (pre-programmed for common IO) recording and playback products for standard buses including VME, CompactPCI and PC. Vortex recorders have a storage system that takes advantage of power, flexibility, and scalability of a Fibre Channel based Storage Area Network (SAN). VORTEX also includes SAN Access Kit workstation connectivity that allows direct high-speed access to the digital data from almost any commercially available processing platform.
AdvancedIO 10GbE configurable IO products offer outstanding connectivity and packet processing performance in conjunction with application flexibility. The architecture provides the optimal platform for implementing advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 packet switching solutions at 10Gbps line speed.
“This collaboration agreement with VMETRO, an established market leader in real-time data recorder systems, validates AdvancedIO’s 10GbE value proposition for the embedded market,” said Mohammad Darwish, CEO of AdvancedIO. “We are committed to supporting VMETRO in the pursuit of opportunities by leveraging our respective technologies and VMETRO’s well established sales and marketing channels.”
