The whitepaper provides the following details on the advantages of these new COM-HPC modules:

  • How support for more PCIe lanes provides greater bandwidth
  • Superior pin count compared to COM Express, and increased multi-threading performance for improved multitasking
  • Running artificial intelligence and deep learning-based inference algorithms on the CPU or integrated GPU
  • Thunderbolt support and remote management functions

With these new COM-HPC modules based on the 11th generation of the Intel Core vPro, Intel Xeon W-11000E, and Intel Celeron processors, the difference in performance between COM-HPC and COM Express becomes more evident. To find out more, download the full whitepaper from congatec’s website.
