The board offers the latest PCI Express 3.0 and Ethernet 40G connectivity coupled with an outstanding array of ultra-low latency QDR II+ and high density DDR3-1600 memories within a standard ¾ length PCIe form factor.

"This alliance of high density DDR and low latency QDR memories makes our development platform perfectly adapted to "on-the-wire" processing such as pre-trade risk checks, market data filtering or full hardware book building applications" says Enyx's CTO Brice Vincent.

By coupling a high-performance 28-nm Stratix V FPGA with a set of IPs such as hardware TCP and UDP networking stacks, PCI-Express DMA and Market Data decoders, Enyx FPB1 becomes the most complete platform for players wanting to create a complete trading engine on a single board.

This platform enables new applications to be developed and deployed by Enyx such as Multi Market feed handlers processing up to 16000 US Equities instruments across up to 8 different markets. Perfect for Pre-Trade risk applications enabling connection of multiple customers to a single board and also opening the way to create fair access feed distribution systems on the exchange side, using the 14 x 10GbE ports available on the board.
