Overview  
Powered by Xilinx's Virtex-7 XC7V690T 
FPGA, the NetFPGA-SUME is an ideal 
platform for high-performance and 
high-density networking design. 
32 GTH serial transceivers have been 
used to provide access to 8 lanes of 
end-point PCI-E (Gen3 x8), 4 SFP+ 
(10Gbps) ports, 2 SATA-III ports 
(6Gbps), and 18 data-rate-adjustable 
GTH ports through a HPC-FMC 
connector and a QTH connector. 
Wide high-speed memory interfaces in the form of three 72 MBit QDRII+ SRAMs with 36 bit buses and two 4GB 
DDR3 SODIMMs with 64 bit buses provide an ideal memory solution for common networking applications.
