BittWare e4 Chassis by LDA, 1x FPGA, 48 ports – Sky Blue Microsystems GmbH

BittWare e4 is 1U PCIe FPGA board enclosure | 48 total ports 16x 25 GbE and 32x 10GbE | two e4 fit to 1U slot

The e4 chassis by LDA Technologies is a unique solution that transforms any FPGA-based PCIe card into a high-end networking device.

Plug any BittWare Intel or Xilinx UltraScale/UltraScale+ FPGA-based PCIe board into the e4, and the system pulls the I/O from the FPGA card out to 48 high-speed networking ports on the device’s front panel.

With a depth of just 12”, the compact e4 allows two boards to fit back-to-back, effectively doubling the number of FPGAs per 1U chassis.

The LDA e4 chassis supports all of BittWare’s Xilinx UltraScale/UltraScale+ or Intel FPGA-based PCIe boards, with 48 front-panel I/O ports and up to 16x 25GbE ports, 32x 10GbE ports. Also included are:

Independent cross point switch fabrics simplify configuration:

The e4 system is equipped with a range of CPU options:

The e4 system allows easy access to BittWare’s software tools and Board Management Controller (BMC):

Built-in software tools allow remote operation:

Have precise control over your system with advanced power features:

A 100 MHz on-board clock can be used as PCIe reference clock or as a very high precision internal clock:

Unlike a standard server, the e4 can boot quickly, getting the FPGA image loaded once power is up:

The e4 is small enough to fit two devices in one rack:

Additional interfaces connect directly to the Linux machine that are ideal for a networking device:
