High-throughput RF signal capture and recording to NVMe Gen4 SSD via FPGA, with real-time remote monitoring over long-distance 100G Ethernet using the standard FTP / TCP-IP protocol — no specialized network hardware required.
Three Hardware Engines. One Complete Pipeline.
The solution integrates three of Design Gateway's production-proven IP cores, each handling one stage of the data path — from the 100G network interface down to physical NVMe SSD storage.
