| The Big River™ NTX16 recording system provides over 800 MB/s recording and playback performance in a shallow depth 4U rack mount chassis. At only a little over 20" in depth, the NTX16 provides exceptional performance and capacity for recording and playback applications.
The system can operate independently from a host computer with command/control performed over a network connection. Control can be automated from a software application using the StreamStor® software API from a network connected computer. A cabled PCI Express interface provides high speed connectivity to a host computer for command/ control or data access. Cabled PCI Express can be used to connect to nearly any computing architecture such as PCI Express, XMC, VME, VPX, VXS, AMC or other mezzanine / backplane environments. Solutions are even available for connection to notebook computers. Based on the StreamStor® Amazon Express architecture, the NTX16 supports many of the same external interface mezzanine cards as the Amazon Express platform. This includes Optical High Speed Serial, Copper High Speed Serial, LVDS and FPDP2.
