VP815

VectorPath™ Accelerator Card

Deliver next-gen AI with scalable FPGA acceleration

The Speedster7t FPGA is highly optimized for AI/ML, compute, and is at the heart of VectorPath accelerator cards.

AI / ML

Achieve an industry-leading tokens per second output with open source LLMs, accelerating text generation, chatbot responses, and AI-powered content creation while delivering significantly lower latency for AI workloads leveraging various size foundational or fine-tuned and task specific LLMs vs. traditional GPU and CPU solutions.

Automated Speech Recognition

Transcribe up to 2,400 simultaneous audio
streams with multiple language support,
latency under 25ms, and an industry-leading
word error rate (WER) of less than 3%, ensuring real-time, low-latency speech-to-text conversion for real-time agent assist in contact centers, voice assistants, transcription services, and real-time conversational AI applications.

Networking

Wire-rate 400 GbE capture, real-time traffic analysis, packet steering and more are all possible. With 16 channels of GDDR6, each operating at 256 Gbps, combined with 16x 100 GbE creates a platform that is uniquely constructed to enable a whole new generation of 400 GbE appliances.

Generation 5.0

Double the Bandwidth!

The VP815 is ready for Gen5 with twice the bandwidth per lane of Gen4.

Speedster7t FPGA

VectorPath 815 leverages the Speedster®7t FPGA architecture, optimized for AI/ML and high-performance computing workloads. Its Machine Learning Processor (MLP) blocks, 2D Network-on-Chip (NoC), GDDR6 memory, and 112G SerDes deliver exceptional AI inferencing performance.

Key Benefits:

  • Accelerated AI Performance: Tensor-optimized MLP blocks outperform traditional solutions.
  • High Throughput, Low Latency: NoC architecture provides up to 20 Tbps bandwidth for real-time data delivery.
  • Scalable Architecture: Predictable latency and scalability for edge and data center deployments.

GDDR6 Memory

5x Faster Large Memory

Using high-bandwidth GDDR6 memory, the VP815 gives your application a large memory resource of 32 Gigabytes, but at more than 5 times greater bandwidth. Plus with the 2D NoC, the GDDR6 is available for read/write from the host over PCIe without using FPGA fabric resources.

400GbE Networking

The VP815 card offers a range of network interfaces connected to the Speedster7t FPGA fabric. The card supports 112G
PAM4, with hard IP MAC and FEC support. On-board jitter cleaners are available for synchronous ethernet (SyncE).

QSFP-DD Interfaces
Two QSFP-DD interfaces with up to 400 Gbps per port. A range of other options including 16x 100G (total) are available using breakout cables.
