Centralized control system MH70R

high-performance

The MH70R is not a single standard product, it is rather a modular concept, which is available within a project context and therefore very flexible for use in various applications. Main Server Unit and Centralized Platform The MH70R main server unit acts as the central component of the railway data center. Several distributed functions are combined into a centralized platform, which reduces the amount of devices within the application environment. Railway Data Center High-Performance CPU, Virtualization and Security The system is based on a high-performance Intel Xeon-D processor. Being an open virtualization platform, it supports Intel VT-x and VT-d technology to virtualize several functions, e.g., video surveillance or ticketing. The software can be developed without hardware which reduces the development time. It also supports a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for security implemented through cryptography, as well as an error-correcting code (ECC) memory, board and system management control, and a watchdog timer to ensure reliability. Modular Design Based on a modular 40 HP CompactPCI Serial system, the MH70R can be wall or rack-mounted and offers a multitude of configuration possibilities resulting in a fast time-to-market. For the concept, a high-performance, high-bandwidth multi-core CPU board offering 10 Gigabit and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, legacy serial I/O such as RS232, and USB 3.0 interfaces is available. The most common wireless communication functions can be implemented in the MH70R via CompactPCI Serial peripheral boards, as well as hot-pluggable and easy to exchange HDD/SSD shuttles which allow easy maintenance in the field.
