We are very excited to announce that new hardware will be joining the NetFPGA family of open-source networking platforms.

The new board, NetFPGA SUME, is an FPGA-based PCI Express board with I/O capabilities for 10 and 100 Gbps operation, an x8 Gen3 PCIe adapter card incorporating Xilinx’s Virtex-7 690T FPGA.

The peripheral subsystems adds to the four SFP+ transceivers with replaceable DDR3-SODIMM memories, QDRII+ memories, as well as presenting the 18 remaining transceivers into two expansion interfaces of eight and ten 13.1Gbps (GTH) transceivers using an VITA-57 compliant FMC connector and an SAMTEC QTH-DP connector.

An article describing the card appeared in the September/October issue of IEEE Micro Magazine - the official link to the article is here. You can access the pre-print version of the paper here.

If you would like to be kept up to date on NetFPGA SUME, please fill this form.

As a starting point, new users may find the Getting Started Guide a good place to begin.

We hope you are as excited as we are to have this new addition to our growing family of open-source NetFPGA platforms, and we hope that you will be part of our exciting future.
