Kontron VX6090 combines dense processing with rich standards-based 10 Gigabit Ethernet communication fabrics and I/O connectivity to form a powerful and flexible platform for SWaP-constrained missions. It is equally suitable for streaming radar signal processing, image-processing and embedded server-type applications.

The 6U OpenVPX™-compliant VX6090 features a dual-node architecture with 8-core 2 GHz Intel Xeon D processors, AVX2 SIMD extensions, up to 32 GB of on-board soldered DDR4 (with ECC), up to 24 MB of high speed cache memory and an embedded 2-D SM750 graphics controller per node.

Adding advanced security, the Kontron’s VX6090 integrates two secure elements, Kontron APPROTECT and Trusted Platform Module, which offer security protection through trusted boot, authentication by TPM and secure boot solutions.

"The qualification of the VX6090 in our new radar program confirms that Kontron meets the high level of quality that we expect, for both the products and the long-term services", said Arnaud Defaut, Head of COTS Purchasing at Thales.
