Curtiss-Wright Controls has released the Vortex SAN Recorder Kit (SRK) software-based data recording solution that speeds and simplifies the addition of high performance data recording and storage functionality to open standards-based laboratory and deployed systems.

The SRKs can be added to 3U and 6U CompactPCI, VME, VXS, VPX and OpenVPX-based systems, enhancing the overall system capability. The Vortex SRKs enables system designers to flexibly add data recording capabilities to their high-performance processing system at any point from development to deployment.  The Vortex SRK complements Electronic System’s Vortex family of recorder and storage solutions.

Vortex SRK features
• Powerful data recorder and storage functionality
• Saves valuable chassis slot
• Fully-featured Vortex software – 40 man-years of Vortex software development
• Powerful GUI interface
• Supports Fiber Channel Storage
• Scalable storage to meet application needs

Applications:
The Vortex SRK is suitable for embedded defense and aerospace systems. It is designed for use in demanding I/O intensive applications, including signal intelligence, radar, sonar, FLIR, RF tuners, MRI and cameras and image processing, that require the high-speed transfer of digitized data between a system’s sensors and processors.
