Mantaro Networks Releases First Intel Agilex System on Module (SOM)

GERMANTOWN, Md., February 12, 2020 (Newswire.com) - ​Mantaro announced today the release of their first Intel Agilex based product, the Intel Agilex System on Module (SOM). This SOM incorporates the latest 10nm Agilex AG014 FPGA with P-Tile and E-Tile transceivers on a 5.45” by 6.85” (13.9 by 17.4 cm)  printed circuit board to create a high-performance computing (HPC) and networking platform. The SOM module provides x8 PCI Gen4/Gen3 connectivity and 16 transceivers with up to 28.9Gbps NRZ or 8 transceivers with 57.8Gbps PAM-4 via two mezzanine connectors. The module supports 2 dual-rank 72-bit DDR4 (RDIMM/UDIM) memory slots for high-performance applications. The module also integrates 4GB DDR4 on-board memory, 32GB eMMC storage and GiGE Ethernet interfaces for the Agilex ARM Host Processor Subsystem (HPS). A single micro USB connector provides debugging and monitoring capabilities including integrated USB Blaster II.

Mantaro also provides carrier card options for the SOM to create complete Agilex development platforms for networking centric applications with support up to 400 Gigabit Ethernet. Mantaro has also successfully demonstrated the operation of their high-speed Ethernet FPGA IP cores at speeds up to 400Gps on the Agilex development platform against multiple third-party test equipment. 

The Agilex Development Platform is ideal for applications such as high-performance computing, Artificial Intelligence, 5G Wireless, signal and image processing, Agilex evaluation, and for direct integration into white label OEM products.  

The Agilex development platform is available immediately from Mantaro. Data sheets and additional information about this and other Development Platforms are available on Mantaro’s website or by email at [email protected].
