Mission-Ready Video I/O in a Single XMC Slot
The WOLF XMC-FGX2-6IO is a high-density XMC video capture card engineered for platforms that can’t afford dropped frames or downtime. Powered by WOLF’s second-generation Frame Grabber eXtreme 2 (FGX2) engine on a Xilinx Kintex UltraScale+ FPGA. It ingests, converts and transmits multiple video standards with sub-frame latency. All while staying within a 12–25 W power envelope.
Key Features at a Glance
- Multi-format I/O in parallel
- Up to 4 × 12G-SDI inputs and outputs
- 2 × DisplayPort 1.4 MST inputs (2 streams each)
- ARINC 818 I/O up to 10 Gbps
- CoaXPress input option
- Legacy RGsB or CVBS analog input
- On-board 4K processing – real-time scaling, colour-space and protocol conversion with no host CPU load.
- NVIDIA GPUDirect RDMA support – direct, low-latency transfer to CUDA cores for AI/vision workloads.
- SWaP-optimised – 12 – 25 W typical, conduction- or air-cooled, MIL/DO-160 qualified build.
- MCOTS flexibility – factory-configured variants and firmware mods to match unique program needs.
Why It Matters
| Challenge | XMC-FGX2-6IO Solution |
| Numerous video formats on one platform | Converts SDI↔DisplayPort↔ARINC 818↔analog on-board |
| Strict SWaP limits | Fits a single XMC site; ≤25 W draw |
| Harsh operating conditions | Fully rugged, conduction-cooled option |
| AI/ISR pipelines need raw frames fast | GPUDirect RDMA feeds NVIDIA GPUs directly |
| Security & longevity | Designed, built and fully supported in North America |
Typical Applications
- C5ISR situational-awareness consoles
- UAV / UGV EO/IR and radar payload processing
- Gimballed sensor turrets requiring mixed legacy and digital I/O
- Rugged DVR / debrief stations
- Test & measurement benches needing deterministic video capture
