The Condor NVP2102AxX card has a chip-down NVIDIA Quadro P2000 (GP107) design that supports four 3G-SDI inputs, two CVBS (NTSC/PAL), and two audio inputs, as well as two 3G-SDI and two DVI or DisplayPort video outputs.
This rugged XMC graphics card is able to deliver high performance using its 768 CUDA cores and 4GBytes of GDDR5 memory. At maximum power consumption, the Quadro P2000 delivers 2.3 TFLOPs of single-precision floating point compute performance (FP32).
The XMC card has been designed for customers who want to combine legacy video with newer digital video formats in high-end surveillance applications. The card is an all-in-one solution with the ability to capture, process, encode, decode, display, and stream video data. It is also able to support CUDA and OpenCL based GPGPU computing, AI processing, deep learning and H.265/H.264 encoding/decoding.
High-speed data transfer and exceptionally low latency levels are achieved with the Condor NVP2102AxX graphics processor by optimising NVIDIA’s GPUDirect RDMA (remote direct memory access) feature. This enables video data to be sent over PCIe, bypassing system memory, directly to GPU memory for analysis/processing. In GPU memory, the applications can do processing such as image analysis, image enhancement, 360-degree video stitching, sensor fusion, and target detection using the GPGPU (CUDA/OpenCL) technology.
Commenting, Selwyn L. Henriques, president and CEO of EIZO Rugged Solutions, said: “This product offers a bridge for customers who want to combine legacy video with the newer, digital video formats. For example, one of our military airborne customers was looking to upgrade a gimbal/sensor pod running analogue video to a digital solution. This dual analogue/video graphics card provided that transition in a single card solution while dramatically lowering CPU overhead, reducing latency, and delivering improvements in data transfer times.”
Built to survive in harsh environments, the Condor NVP2102AxX is tested to withstand high temperatures, shock and vibration (MIL-STD-810G). It is available in conduction-cooled or air-cooled variants with rear XMC I/O on Pn6. The rear XMC pin-out is compatible with VPX systems that follow VITA 46.9 x12d+x8d+24s. 3U VPX and PCIe form factors are supported by carrier boards.
Customisation options include support for other video input and output formats such as additional DVI, DisplayPort, STANAG 3350, or ARINC 818. Special analogue Sync-on-Green video formats such as RS-343 are also available. The XMC IO can be re-routed as PMC IO or to the front panel.
