The S2U “King Cobra” is a major breakthrough in server technology. It is the smallest, fastest rack-mount server on the market, with more I/O performance and storage functionality than any other server. It replaces several 1U/2U servers, switches/routers, RAID controllers, and Auxiliary Power Units (APU) with a single 2U, 17-inch deep (short) rack-mountable (or freestanding) enclosure. Furthermore, 100% of the “King Cobra” electronics modules are Line Replaceable Units (LRU) specifically designed for field replacement and upgrading. This at-the-module 100% LRU functionality allows the user to replace any function of the system in the field within seconds, thus providing ultimate flexibility and minimizing down time.

The S2U features state-of-the-art CPU, packaging, and cooling design, utilizing the rugged and proven OpenVPX (VITA 65) architecture. Unlike PC motherboards, which virtually all servers use, the “King Cobra” OpenVPX design can withstand much higher shock, vibration, and temperatures than standard servers. The “King Cobra” utilizes a modular subsystem design allowing the OEM user to upgrade or change the server’s configuration in the field quickly and economically. This reliable, field-proven OpenVPX architecture also takes full advantage of commercial-off-the shelf (COTS) PCI Express (PCIe) boards such as ultra-high-performance video boards, RAID controllers, and DSP modules, which may be quickly and easily plugged/unplugged into the system within seconds. OpenVPX is also used for the redundant, N+1

hot-swappable power supply modules.

S2U “King Cobra” is the world’s most advanced server system. Besides offering more than 8U worth of server/switch/router/storage functionality in only 2U of (short) rack space, S2U’s field-replaceable, modular architecture is an industry breakthrough at a significantly lower price. Where every server on the planet except S2U relies on an inflexible bolted-in motherboard that is often happiest in an air-conditioned environment, S2U relies on the battle-hardened OpenVPX standard. S2U’s motherboard can be easily swapped out in the field, or upgraded as technology evolves.

In addition to the CPU, every electronics module in the S2U “King Cobra” is a modular line replacement unit (LRU) and can be easily extracted, changed or replaced with a pre-planned product improvement. S2U’s rugged field replaceable modules maximize battlefield uptime and survivability, shattering the fallacy that commercial servers cannot be “ruggedized” for the battlefield. Typical motherboard-based servers can’t survive, they can’t be easily fixed, and they won’t evolve when your program needs change.

PROGRAM COMMONALITY S2U’s modular approach has several other advantages when applied to long-running programs. Besides using modular LRUs for tech refresh on the original program, S2U can be easily adapted to other programs as well. Application software developed for one program can be reused, while new or legacy I/O modules from another program can be added to S2U. In this fashion, S2U remains the same basic system across multiple programs but is modified with different platform-specific configurations. This commonality eases system qualification and meets joint service requirements for “component” commonality across platforms.

SPARES AND FIELD REPLACEMENT S2U’s modular approach also simplifies sparing. A “spare” in S2U is any of the removable LRU electronics subsystem modules. With conventional servers, the lowest size LRU spare is usually the whole server itself. With S2U, spare electronics modules can be available at the depot level. The S2U modular approach saves money, simplifies logistics, and finally makes true field replacement a reality.

LIFECYCLE UPGRADABILITY

Defense systems need to survive the battlefield as well as the design and budget cycles inherent in the military lifecycle. The GMS modular design approach allows the S2U server to upgrade and evolve as technology and programs change, such as from one processor generation to the next. S2U’s electronics modules and firmware are easily upgradeable: a program requalification might not even be required.

THE GMS MODULAR APPROACH

SPARING AND TECH REFRESH

S2U MODULAR TECHNOLOGY COMMENTS ADVANTAGE: S2U

PCI EXPRESS FABRIC Interconnects all S2U modules. Provides maximum bandwidth with growth headroom for years to come.

OPENVPX Battle-hardened modules used in rugged aviation, naval, vetronics and space platforms.

No “practically-obsolete” commercial motherboards from offshore manufacturers are found in S2U.

INDUSTRY-STANDARD SSD DRIVES

Ubiquitous SATA and PCI Express drives are available in myriad densities and MTBF ratings.

This future-proofs S2U as the industry evolves to PCI Express SSDs.

PCIE CARD CAGE ANDAUXILIARY POWER

Commonly-available PCI Express (PCIe) computer boards plug right in. Or the modular card cage can be replaced with power supply/battery back-up for graceful shutdown in the event of power failure.

Both options maximize flexibility and make S2U easy to design with—or design into legacy programs.

OPENVPX POWER AND I/O MODULES

A smaller version of S2U’s “motherboard” and communications modules, S2U relies onindustry-standard power supply modules with wide availability and voltage choices.

Power supply sparing becomes off-the-shelf. Add-in industry-standard 3U OpenVPX I/O and co-processor boards substantially extend “King Cobra” functionality.

CISCO® MOBILEREADYNET ROUTER

The world’s most trusted router software in S2U assures interoperability with battlefield LANs and WANs.

Software programmability protects attack surfaces as the cyber-threat grows, allowing S2U’s capabilities to grow with the network and cyber security needs.

ADD-IN I/O OPTIONS S2U contains at least 20 different ways to add I/O and new functions to the server. Various modules are dual-use, can be swapped out for other functions, or are ready to accept new capabilities.

No other server has this much flexibility…in such a small space.

PCIe SUBSYSTEM

1500W POWER SUPPLY W/ APU


The PCIe Subsytem provides four full length/full height PCIe slots for industry-standard add-on modules. The Power Supply/Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) Subsystem provides normal and holdup power for the entire S2U. These two subsystems are installed independently. When the PCIe Subsystem option is used, power to “King Cobra” is supplied via the 3U OpenVPX Subsystem utilizing 3U OpenVPX power supplies. When the Power Supply/APU Subsystem is used, normal power is provided via this subsystem and backup power or orderly shutdown is provided via internal batteries or Super Caps. Besides providing backup power, choosing the Power Supply/APU in “King Cobra” makes available three slots in the 3U OpenVPX Subsystem to support user I/O modules.

The PCIe Subsystem is a function never seen before in any server. It is a removable subsystem that houses up to four full size, full height PCIe cards such as video cards, RAID controllers, DSPs, and many other ultra-high performance cards requiring the fastest throughput possible. Each site supports a x16 PCIe interface and gives rear panel access directly to I/O. Up to 600W of total power is provided for these four sites, making them capable of supporting the most power demanding applications.

The Power Supply/Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) is designed to provide backup power to the “King Cobra” for several minutes in order to prevent sudden shutdown, which can create catastrophic system errors and corrupt the file system. The Power Supply/APU Subsystem detects power brownouts and failure conditions, and provides a clean DC power supply to the S2U while forcing an orderly shutdown. BIOS settings allow the system to go to suspend-to-disk mode (S4 state) or full shutdown (S5).

The Power Supply/APU Subsystem may be ordered with a LiFePO4 type of battery for ground-based applications, or with Super Caps technology for airborne applications where batteries are prohibited.

The Power Supply/APU supports 110/220 VAC or 28 VDC input power (MIL-STD-704F), supports voltage and temperature monitoring with reporting, and may be easily removed via locking ejectors. When the Power Supply/APU is used the PCIe subsystem is omitted from the “King Cobra” (they are mutually exclusive).

- Supports up to three 3U OpenVPX sites- Up to 3 redundant, hot-swappable 3U OpenVPX Power Supplies- Four x1 PCIe and four USB ports to the 6U OpenVPX backplane- Supports 110/220 VAC or 28 VDC (MIL-STD-1275) input power- Voltage and temperature monitoring, plus reporting

The Power Supplies/Custom I/O Subsystem is a 3U OpenVPX subsystem. It supports three standard 3U OpenVPX modules or OpenVPX Power Supply modules. If power is supplied via the APU Subsytem, all three OpenVPX sites may be used for user I/O. If the PCIe Subsystem is used, then a minimum of one Power Supply

module is required to power the system. Each Power Supply module provides up to 600W of power. For redundant power or when high power PCIe modules and SSDs are required, two additional power supplies can be added. These power supplies are hot-swappable and support 110/220 VAC or 28 VDC (MIL-STD-1275).

CUSTOM I/O SUBSYSTEM / POWER SUPPLIES
