02Core Capabilities

Introduction to XIt1098

The XIt1098 provides I/O expansion for Intel® Xeon® D-2700 series (formerly Ice Lake-D) processor-based 3U VPX single board computers (SBCs).

Elongated Design

Its elongated design fits in VITA 46.10 RTM slots and allows for convenient access to more I/O connectors than standard VITA 46.10 RTMs.

Ethernet Connectivity

The XIt1098 features two QSFP+ connectors that can each be configured for either two 100GBASE-R Ethernet ports or eight 25GBASE-R Ethernet ports. Two SFP+ connectors support two 1000BASE-X Ethernet ports, and an RJ-45 connector supports one 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet port.

Additional I/O

The XIt1098 also features two RS-232/422/485 serial ports and two USB 2.0 ports.

M.2 Expansion

Multiple M.2 sites can support up to three x4 PCI Express interfaces and two x2 PCI Express interfaces (or four x4 PCI Express interfaces and no x2 PCI Express interfaces).
