● The new XMC graphics card captures, processes and displays 3G-SDI video and metadata with extremely low latency. The solution features the NVIDIA RTX A2000 GPU with 8GB of GDDR6 graphics memory and 2,560 CUDA cores, delivering exceptional performance in a small, robust package.
Orlando, Florida, August 13, 2024 – EIZO Rugged Solutions Inc., a provider of rugged graphics, display and video electronics hardware, has released the Condor NVA2102xX – a rugged video graphics card in the XMC form factor designed for high-performance embedded computing applications that require real-time video/sensor capture and AI-accelerated GPGPU processing.
The Condor NVA2102xX card enables systems to simultaneously capture, process, display, encode, decode and stream video data in a single XMC slot. The new XMC card features four 3G-SDI video inputs and four DisplayPort++, VGA and 3G-SDI outputs. It features the NVIDIA RTX™ A2000 GPU, which supports 8 GB of GDDR6 graphics memory with error correcting code (ECC), 2,560 CUDA® cores, 80 Tensor cores (third generation) and 20 RT cores (second generation) for accelerated performance in neural network training and inference functions.
The NVIDIA Ampere GPU architecture supports the CUDA parallel computing platform and OpenCL-based GPGPU computing, NVIDIA GPUDirect® RDMA, and H.265/H.264 encoding/decoding. At maximum power consumption, the NVIDIA RTX A2000 GPU delivers 9.3 TFLOPS of single-precision floating-point (FP32) compute performance.
The Condor NVA2102xX supports integrated video format conversion as well as metadata insertion and extraction. The metadata can be used to embed real-time information such as GPS coordinates, sensor data, speed slope or other relevant data into the video feed. This embedded metadata can then be extracted to add additional context to the video footage, improving situational awareness and decision making.
John Payne, Senior Product Manager at EIZO Rugged Solutions, said: “The Condor NVA2102xX builds on our highly successful Condor NVP2102xX product, which has been deployed on multiple platforms in the air, at sea and on the ground. It offers significant processing improvements in inference applications, doubles the memory bandwidth and increases performance per watt compared to previous generations.” He added: “As we focus on lifecycle management, the release of the NVA product line provides customers with the option of a seamless transition/upgrade from the previous generation.”
The Condor NVA2102xX is part of EIZO’s Condor NVA2100 XMC series solutions, all designed with the NVIDIA Ampere architecture and featuring flexible video I/O options. The Condor NVA2100 XMC series is the next generation of the Condor NVP2100 XMC series (Pascal architecture) and offers systems a modular and scalable solution with higher performance and memory bandwidth.
The Condor NVA2102xX is designed for use in harsh environments and is tested to withstand high temperatures, shocks and vibrations (MIL-STD-810G). It is available in conduction-cooled or air-cooled variants with rear XMC I/O on Pn6. The rear XMC pinout is compatible with VPX systems that comply with VITA 46.9 x12d+x8d+24s.
