WOLF Advanced Technology has launched four NVIDIA® Blackwell-based VPX modules designed for mission-critical edge AI applications. Leveraging NVIDIA® Blackwell GPUs, these 3U and 6U VPX modules deliver enhanced AI inference capabilities while operating in harsh environments.
Purpose-built for extreme environmental resilience, these products merge Blackwell’s architectural advancements with WOLF’s signature modularity and rapid MCOTS customization.
WOLF-1636
The WOLF-1636 (VPX3U-BW5000E-VO-HPC) provides advanced rugged AI processing with NVIDIA’s Blackwell RTX 5000 embedded GPU, featuring 10,496 CUDA cores and 320 fifth-generation Tensor Cores. Its 24GB GDDR7 ECC memory achieves up to 896GB/s bandwidth—55% faster than prior generations, enabling larger data sets to reach the GPU for real-time processing.
SOSA-aligned (14.6.11/13) and backward-compatible with SOSA aligned Ada/Ampere systems, this 3U module can handle the large data set processing required by the most demanding applications.
WOLF-163S
For network-dense deployments, the WOLF-163S (VPX3U-BW5000E-SWITCH) combines Blackwell AI/HPC processing with two switches, a 200GbE network switch with eight 25GbE ports, and a PCIe Gen5 switch, consolidating what would normally require two slots into one slot-saving module.
By unifying CUDA core flexibility and fifth-Gen Tensor core AI processing with GDDR7’s bandwidth, the WOLF-163S provides a significant increase over Ada-generation performance for SWaP-constrained AI inference and is a huge performance increase over the legacy WOLF-134S product.
WOLF-163L
Systems that rely on network connectivity gain an edge with the WOLF-163L (VPX3U-BW5000E-CX7), pairing Blackwell’s compute performance with NVIDIA® ConnectX-7’s 100GbE RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) and hardware-accelerated encryption. This solution maintains pin compatibility with previous generation WOLF-153L/144L deployments.
WOLF-2638
Available in the 6U form factor, the WOLF-2638 (VPX6U-BW5000E-VO) features dual Blackwell GPUs, combining 48GB GDDR7, 20,992 CUDA cores, 640 fifth-generation Tensor Cores, and a configurable PCIe Gen5 switch.
Engineered for cutting-edge systems, the WOLF-2638 can be cooled via conduction cooling, air cooling, or liquid flow-through cooling to permit the highest possible performance.
The new modules are now available for order, delivering cutting-edge AI processing power and enhanced performance in rugged, mission-critical environments.
