10GbE UDP Recorder

The Galleon 10GbE UDP Ethernet Recorder is a low-latency, high-performance recording and playback system purpose-built for real-time UDP traffic capture in rugged environments. Designed to capture up to 8 channels of 10GbE UDP traffic with zero packet loss, this FPGA-accelerated solution ensures precise time-stamped recording and cycle-accurate playback. Suitable for deployment on mobile platforms such as UAVs, UGVs, and ground vehicles, it integrates easily into Galleon’s XSR or High-Performance Recorder families. With support for up to 80TB of removable SSD storage, optional GPS/NTP sync, and CSfC-compliant encryption, the 10GbE UDP Recorder is an ideal solution for applications requiring deterministic, high-speed Ethernet capture.

Rugged Ethernet Recorder with FPGA-Based UDP Offload & Playback

The Galleon 10GbE UDP Recorder provides high-bandwidth UDP data capture and synchronised playback in a rugged, SWaP-C optimised form factor. It is uniquely engineered with FPGA-based processing to guarantee zero dropped packets, minimal CPU load, and precise cycle-accurate timestamping. This system is ideal for high-speed applications including missile testing, radar development, sensor validation, and scientific research. With up to 8x 10GbE inputs and removable SSD storage, it enables real-time, reliable, and repeatable data acquisition in even the harshest environments.
