The MSC C7B-DVL is equipped with Intel® C3000 series processors, offering broadest scalability from four to sixteen processor cores as well as low-cost entry-level models. The modules have up to five Ethernet interfaces, four of which offer transfer rates of 10Gb, up to 14 PCIe lanes and up to 96 GB DDR4 ECC memory. Some variants that support industrial-level temperatures (-40 to +85°C) are also thought for use in harsh environmental conditions. For evaluation purposes and for starter kits, MSC offers a matching Type 7 ATX form factor carrier board. This feature-rich carrier board brings not only numerous PCI Express slots, four 10Gb Ethernet ports, SATA and other interfaces, but also an optional BMC (Board Management Controller) for remote maintenance. Up to 15 years long-term supply.
