End of Life (EOL) Product Notice:
An end-of-life notice applies to this product. Contact BittWare for more information.
We’ve integrated one of the world’s highest performance servers from HPE with our latest generation of FPGA accelerators to help customers address the most demanding data center applications. The TeraBox™ 2000H is a 2U rack mount server based on the HPE ProLiant DL385 Gen10. It combines two AMD EPYC processors with up to three full-size PCIe BittWare accelerators featuring the latest FPGAs from Achronix, Intel and Xilinx.
For system management, BittWare’s FPGA cards are equipped with a Board Management Controller (BMC), which accepts IPMI 2.0 commands. Use it along with BittWare’s BittWorks II Toolkit to program the FPGA over USB, monitor card power and temperature, and re-program the onboard clocks. You’ll also be able to set points to shut down the card when it gets too hot, access JTAG, or access the software tools remotely.
Choosing a TeraBox FPGA server means knowing you are getting a pre-configured and tested solution. This includes setup and installation of your FPGA cards and associated hardware, your choice of operating system, and development tools. Your TeraBox arrives ready for use—giving your team more time for development and deployment.
The TeraBox 2000H supports many of BittWare’s Achronix, Intel, or Xilinx FPGA-based PCIe cards. The table below lists system totals when populated with four of our certified* cards:
