The PCIe-180™ low profile network accelerator card provides a powerful PCI Express computing platform for FPGA development and deployment across a range of application areas including Signal Intelligence, Network Security and Algorithm Acceleration.

The PCIe-180 features an XFP module supporting 10Gb Ethernet and OC192 SONET via the PCI backplate. This network interface is directly coupled to a Xilinx Virtex-5 FPGA and a flexible, high bandwidth configuration of SRAM and SDRAM memory.

Optimized memory controller IP cores and reference designs are included as part of the standard product deliverables along with driver and API source code for 64-bit Linux operating systems.

The PCIe-180 is compatible with almost all high density server and blade centre platforms from leading OEMs.
