X10 Mission Computer system is a pre-configured compact 3-slot 3U OpenVPX (VITA-65 compliant) conduction-cooled chassis. It complies with IEEE-1101.2 slot cards with a 1.0-in. pitch high-density backplane. Standard configuration includes either a GMS single-slot VENOM Intel® 8C (Tiger Lake) or 20C (Xeon® D Ice Lake) single-board computer (SBC) and two slots. One slot can be equipped with a GMS GPGPU module or high-density Ethernet switch card, or both spare slots can be used for user I/O. SOSA-aligned, the chassis conforms with the Open Group® specification or can be maxed out with Thunderbolt™ 4 I/O with Power Delivery, 100 GigE (fiber), and more.

At the center of GMS’s X10 GENESIS Mission Processor System is the X9 VENOM™ 3U OpenVPX mission computer module, available both in single slot and dual slot versions with Intel Xeon® W (8 cores) or Xeon D (20 cores). Intel®’s next generation CPU (Xeon® W or Xeon® D) offers scalability with high-density performance.

The X9 VENOM family is the ultimate in 3U OpenVPX products and is designed for MOSA (Modular Open Standard Approach) and developed in alignment with the SOSA™ Technical Standard. SOSA profile is SLT3-PAY-1F1F2U1TU1T1U1T-14.2.16.

X9 VENOM™’s clamshell heatsink design employs GMS’s patented RuggedCool® and Diamond RuggedCool2™ cooling technology by providing a larger and more direct heat path from the OpenVPX LRU heat plane to the chassis for long life in extended temperature environments.

Two expansion OpenVPX sites are provided for additional I/O and can be configured to match customer needs. Available capabilities include an Ethernet switch, NVIDIA®-based GPGPU for AI applications, NAS (network attached storage), fiber Ethernet, FPGA co-processing logic and more. The chassis front panel can be modified for the extra I/O from the expansion slots.

High-speed I/O to and from the Mission Processor system is via optional Thunderbolt 4 at 40 Gbps transfer or the Ethernet interfaces (up to 6x 100 GigE fiber, up to 6x 10 GigE, and up to 9x 1 GigE) as well as through the Thunderbolt 4 interfaces.
