Signatec’s Data Acquisition and Playback Systems Sustain 2.8 GB/s With No Data Loss
Signatec Inc. unveiled its DR2800 signal recording system platform capable of sustaining 2.8 GB/s of data recording directly to a high-speed RAID system. Ideally suited for the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Wideband Flight Recorder and advanced Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) industries, the DR2800 platform’s industry-leading data recording rate is achieve by combining two or more of Signatec’s PCI Express (PCIe)-based high speed analog signal digitizers to continuously record 2800 MB/s of 8-bit or 14-bit data for the entire 6 to 96 TB RAID volume with no breaks in the signal record.
Sign“Doubling Signatec’s recording capability from 1.4 GB/s to 2.8 GB/s is a significant upgrade, in and of itself” said Anthony Hunt, Signatec’s Vice President and Chief Technology Officer. “However, when combined with Signatec’s SYNC1500-6 module, the recording platform is scalable for up to six chassis, delivering a combined 16.8 GB/s of synchronized channel data recorded with the same ADC sample clock.”
