Kontron presents the VX33211 3U VPX GPU board for AI, graphics and high-performance edge computing
NVIDIA® Blackwell-based embedded GPU acceleration for robust, mission-critical systems
Toulon, France, June 9 , 2026 – Kontron , a worldwide A leading provider of IoT/Embedded Computing Technology (ECT), today announced the VX33211, a high-performance 3U VPX GPU board designed for advanced graphics, AI inference, sensor processing and GPGPU acceleration was developed for robust embedded environments.

Based on NVIDIA® RTX PRO™ 2000 Blackwell Embedded GPU brings powerful GPU acceleration to the VX33211 a compact 3U VPX form factor. This makes it possible System developers, computationally intensive workloads such as artificial intelligence, real-time image processing and parallel computing directly at the edge within mission-critical environments Defense and to execute aviation platforms.

With a performance of up to 13.78 TFLOPS FP 32 The VX33211 features 3,328 CUDA cores, 104 Tensor cores for AI inference and Deep learning and 26 RT cores for real-time ray tracing. With 8 GB The VX33211 supports GDDR7 memory and a bandwidth of up to 384 GB/s. High-throughput data processing for demanding applications.

Designed for use in harsh conditions The designed, conduction-cooled version complies with VITA-48 standards and takes into account the environmental aspects of VITA 47. The board is designed for an extended Temperature range from -40 °C to +85 °C. For evaluation and laboratory purposes. An air-cooled version is also available.

The VX33211 was developed in accordance with SOSA® compliant standards. OpenVPX profiles were developed to ensure interoperability and the To simplify system integration. This open architecture approach reduces Development risks and lifecycle costs for applications in Defense area. The board offers PCIe Gen4 connectivity via the Backplane and features an IPMI controller for VITA46.11 Tier 3 support as well as out-of-band system management.

The VX33211 is part of Kontron’s VPX portfolio. and complements existing CPU boards such as the VX307C, thus enabling a Balanced combination of CPU and GPU performance for embedded systems next generation. It is also integrated into the Kontron HARAKAN-F platform. and extends NVIDIA Blackwell GPU acceleration to the entire Kontron’s computing portfolio for robust applications.

Typical applications include AI-supported ISR and electro-optical/infrared processing, mission computing and visualization, Radar and sonar processing, electronic warfare as well as embedded Training and simulation applications.

“The VX33211 brings powerful GPU acceleration in robust embedded VPX systems makes it possible to To process complex data and AI workloads directly at the edge. Through the The combination of high performance, open standards, and robust design reduces It reduces complexity in integration while simultaneously shortening the time to completion. “Provision,” said Sébastien Vitre, Product manager for robust systems at Kontron.
