In this video, Jim Ison will do a quick walkthrough of the OSS 4U Pro Gen4 PCIe Expansion System. The 4U Pro is a rugged AI Transportable system that provides optimized, configurable PCIe Gen4 expansion for edge AI applications with up to 256 Gigabytes per second (GB/s) bi-directional host to expansion bandwidth and 768 GB/s aggregate system bandwidth.
This video will highlight some of the most important features of the 4U Pro Gen4 PCIe Expansion System and help you determine if this system is the right fit for your AI edge application.
As mentioned in the video, the 4U Pro supports up to 8 Gen4 double-wide GPUs, with four PCIe Gen4 x16 HBA/NIC slots for up to 256GB/s of sustained host to expansion data throughput. Alternatively, the 4U Pro can be configured to provide 16 single-width PCIe Gen4 x8 slots for scale out IO applications such FPGA data ingest or the latest NVMe storage add-in cards.
Additional features of the 4U Pro Gen4 PCIe Expansion System including dynamic fan speed control, IPMI based system monitoring and control, replaceable fan filters, and optional SmartNIC host configuration elevate the 4UP to the ideal expansion platform for the entire AI workflow. The 4U Pro combines the power of the latest PCIe Gen4 add-in cards with an optimized, feature-rich, and rugged design for the most demanding AI edge applications.
OSS has been a leading provider of PCIe technologies for many years – always one of the first to market with host interface boards and expansion backplanes for the latest PCIe generation. As Jim mentioned in the video, the 4U Pro is a Gen4 PCIe Expansion System, but will soon be available in PCIe Gen 5. The 4U Pro can help you bring the power of the datacenter to the rugged edge.

Watching the conflicts play out recently in the Ukraine and Iran, it is certain that there has been not only massive adoption in implementation of AI, sensor processing, sensor fusion, and autonomy but also massive advancement of those technologies in relatively short time periods compared to any other time in history. The leaders on the battlefield are those that have harnessed and deployed these technologies without delay in alignment to standards, timing, or bureaucracy in acquiring. Because the level and pace of technology today is so steep, those who fail to adopt and move with a sense of urgency run the risk of falling behind in a technology battle from which they may never have the time or ability to catch up.
Before starting college in 2022, I had considered artificial intelligence (AI) a thing of the future, something I wouldn’t see until I was later in my years. With the birth of large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT and the rise of machine learning systems, my world flipped on its head. Since joining the tech industry, I see I am not alone with this experience. From one year to the next, there is no telling what kind of technological developments we will bear witness to. When it comes to the defense and security of our nation, capitalizing on these advancements is paramount, lest we fall behind our adversaries. As a result, within the defense industry, marketers are required to become adaptable to the shifting needs of their company’s customers.
