Conduant's 'Big River NTX16' in the Sarsen Spotlight

This week we're sharing all our trade secrets about the Big River NTX16 PCI Express Recorder from Conduant Corp!


Conduant Corp. designs and manufactures real-time, long-duration digital recording and playback disk systems. But unlike traditional general purpose disk storage, Conduant’s products ensure reliable, guaranteed and sustained performance in increments of 800 MB/s. Now thats something you don't see every day.....

The key to Conduant’s technology is the innovative way data is recorded; directly from a third party source, bypassing the bottlenecks that can occur in traditional recording systems.

The Big River™ NTX16 recording system provides up to 800 MB/s recording and playback performance in a 3U rack mount chassis. The system can operate independently from a host computer with command and control performed over a network connection. Control can be automated from a software application using the StreamStor® software API from a network connected computer.


A cabled PCI Express interface provides high speed connectivity to a host computer for command and control or data access, and can be used to connect to nearly any computing architecture, such as PCI Express, XMC, VME, VPX, VXS, AMC or other mezzanine / backplane environments.

Solutions are even available for connection to notebook computers!

Features include:
  • Peer-to-peer PCI Express recording and playback capability
  • Performance independent of host load
  • Standalone capable operation with network command/control
  • Sustained recording and playback at up to 800 MB/s
  • Rear PCI Express cabling
  • 3U chassis at only 21” deep
  • Scalable data storage capacities up to 48TB
  • Solid-state or magnetic disk drive media
  • Cabled PCI Express (x8) for full speed data access

In safe hands....

It’s been a funny old week for the folks at Sarsen Technology.

Car troubles, email issues and ‘ghost’ phone calls have made us think about how much technology we use every day, and how much it can affect us when said technology doesn’t work exactly how it should.
Fortunately, we represent 10 manufacturers who know how important it is that their products are reliable, and perform exactly how they should when you need them to.
