CM5-P1000, NVIDIA Quadro P1000
The first COTS PC/104 module with a GPU
Addressing SWAP Restrictions in Aerospace and Defense


ADLINK Technology announced the launch of its CM5-P1000 AI module in PCIe/104 Type 1 format on the 25th. Measuring 116 x 96 mm, the new module addresses the size, weight, and power (SWAP) constraints imposed by aerospace and defense applications. It leverages ADLINK's exclusive technical support and access to advanced processing technologies.

Equipped with an NVIDIA Quadro P1000 GPU, the ADLINK CM5-P1000 module provides access to 640 CUDA cores and delivers 1.8 TFLOPS of performance. It features 4GB of onboard GDDR5 memory, a 128-bit memory architecture, and up to 96GB/s of bandwidth. It includes a 16-lane PCIe Gen 3 bus and four UHD DisplayPort outputs.

“Aerospace and defense engineers need access to embedded technologies that deliver enhanced performance, smaller form factors, and lasting reliability,” said Eric Kao, general manager of ADLINK Networking, Telecommunications and Public Sector. “The CM5-P1000 is modular, providing design flexibility and robustness.”

The CM5-P1000 module is designed to maintain uptime even in demanding operating environments. It operates at temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C and can withstand humidity up to 96%. It can run on Windows 10 or 64-bit Linux operating systems.

The CM5-P1000 is suitable for a wide range of potential use cases, covering a variety of ground-based and airborne computing tasks. These include radar, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR), unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and missile systems. It is also expected to find applications in areas such as factory automation and process control.
