Intel Arria 10 GX FPGA
compatibility with DELL/Supermicro servers

Question

I would know if the Intel Programmable Acceleration Card (PAC) with Intel Arria 10 GX FPGA (DK-ACB-10AX1152AES) is compatible with a Dell R540 or a Supermicro SSG-6049P-E1CR36H server. These serves have standard PCIe 3Gen 16x slots in low-profile format. Is there some special requirement related with the PCIe voltage ?. My last question is about if brackets for the low profile are provided together the FPGA card ?. Thanks.

Hi @JVice2​ R540 is not one of the base configurations. You may refer to : https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/programmable/us/en/pdfs/literature/solution-sheets/base-configuration-guide-intel-fpgas-for-acceleration-in-dell-emc-servers.pdfWhat do you mean by special requirement with PCIe voltage? You will need to follow the PCIe electromechanical spec: https://members.pcisig.com/wg/PCI-SIG/document/12523I am not clear about the bracket for low profile, you may need to check with the Sales representative.  If you do not have a sales rep to support you. Personal message (pm) me your details: company, address, contact. I can help to locate the nearest representative to help out. Drop me a note here that you have pm-ed me (so that i wont miss it). Thanks.
