XSR 40GbE Recorder

The XSR 40GbE Recorder from Galleon Embedded Computing delivers exceptional performance in a rugged, compact form factor—engineered to capture high-bandwidth Ethernet data at over 2GB/sec. Supporting 1x 40GbE, 2x 10GbE, and 5x GbE ports simultaneously, it records UDP or TCP/IP payloads in real time with built-in redundancy and data protection options. Designed for use in UAS, UGVs, flight testing, and mobile ground systems, the XSR offers scalable storage up to 80TB, with optional FIPS 140-2 AES-256 encryption and GPS-based timestamping. Rugged to MIL-STD-810/461 and SWaP-C optimised, the XSR 40GbE is ideal for mission-critical recording in extreme environments.

Rugged Multi-Speed Ethernet Recorder – 40GbE, 10GbE, and GbE

The XSR 40GbE Recorder is built for next-generation data acquisition demands, supporting simultaneous capture from high-speed Ethernet links in harsh field environments. With up to 1x 40GbE optical, 2x 10GbE, and 5x GbE channels, it achieves sustained recording rates beyond 2GB/s. Based on a COTS Open Architecture and powered by Intel Xeon CPUs with up to 96GB DDR4 ECC memory, the XSR ensures performance scalability, long-term support, and system longevity. Its removable SSD modules allow fast offload, while dual-layer encryption protects sensitive data.
