Xilinx is creating an environment where employees, customers, and

partners feel welcome and included. To that end, we’re removing non-

inclusive language from our products and related collateral. We’ve

launched an internal initiative to remove language that could exclude

people or reinforce historical biases, including terms embedded in our

software and IPs. You may still find examples of non-inclusive

language in our older products as we work to make these changes and

align with evolving industry standards. Follow this link for more

information.

Chapter 1

Introduction

This document provides hardware and soware installaon procedures for the T2 Telco

accelerator card along with a guide to the T2 skeleton design. The skeleton design is created

specically for the 16 nm Zynq® UltraScale+™ RFSoC device on the T2 card, and provides

connecons and soware to validate the main interfaces of the board.

Figure 1: T2 Telco Accelerator Card

The Xilinx® T2 Telco accelerator card is a PCI Express® (PCIe) Gen4 x16 compliant card featuring

the 16 nm Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC device. The T2 form factor is half height, half length (HHHL)

and single slot, with a PCIe Gen4 x16 interface that is x8x8 bifurcated providing x8 links from the

host to the Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC device. Target applicaons for the T2 card include the

following:

• 4G LTE and 5G NR high-PHY lookaside acceleraon (supporng 3GPP split opon 7–2x)

• 5G layer 1 (L1) high-PHY lookaside acceleraon

• 4G LTE and 5G NR inline acceleraon of L1 funcons (supporng 3GPP split opon 7–2x) for

up to 4TRX

The T2 card turns a standard server into a virtual baseband unit with the performance, low

latency, and power eciency needed for O-RAN 5G deployments. The turnkey soluon enables

operators, system integrators, and OEMs to get to market quickly and to simplify the deployment

of services at the edge.

Minimum System Requirements and Setup

The minimum system requirements for running a T2 Telco accelerator card are shown below:

Table 1: Minimum System Requirements

Component Requirement

Motherboard PCI Express 4.0 compatible with one dual-width x16 slot.

System power supply 75W through a PCI Express slot connection

Operating system Linux, 64-bit:

CentOS 7 and 8

Ubuntu 16, 18, and 20

System memory and CPU cores For deployment installations, a minimum of 16 GB plus

application memory requirements is required. For

development installations, a minimum of 64 GB of device

memory is required, but 80 GB is recommended.

A minimum of 16 logical cores is required.

Internet connection Required for downloading drivers and utilities.

Hard disk space Satisfy the minimum system requirements for your

operating system.

Auxiliary power supply No auxiliary power supply is required because the T2 card

cannot boot standalone.

Vitis™ application acceleration development flow The Vitis™ application acceleration development flow is not

currently supported.

The T2 Telco accelerator card is intended for deployment on most servers. Thermal tesng has

been conducted on a Dell R640. Funconal tesng has been conducted on a number of

addional servers including Dell R730 and R740.

Configuring the PCIe Slot Bifurcation

Perform the following steps to enable bifurcaon in the slot where the T2 card has been

inserted. This is required for the T2 card to work properly.

Note: These steps are for a single T2 card deployment.

1. Power on the server. The output on the monitor is shown below.

7. Click the required slot to change bifurcaon.

8. Click Default Bifurcaon and select x8x8 or x8 Bifurcaon. This enables the T2 card in the

slot with the correct communicaon over the PCI. Click the Back buon in the lower right

hand side of the screen.

9. Return to the System BIOS screen and click the Back buon again.

10. In the System BIOS Sengs main menu screen, click Finish.

11. A popup window will show a warning, as shown below. Click Yes to save the changes you

made.

12. Click the Finish buon again.

13. When the system has rebooted, check to see if the T2 card has been detected using the

lspci | grep Xilinx command.

Card Information and Installation

Safety Instructions

To ensure your personal safety and the safety of your equipment:

• Keep your work area and the computer/server clean and clear of debris.

• Before opening the computer/system cover, unplug the power cord.

Electrostatic Discharge

Electrostac discharge (ESD) can damage electronic components when they are improperly

handled, and can result in total or intermient failures. Always follow ESD prevenon procedures

when removing and replacing components. To prevent ESD damage:

• Use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes skin contact. Connect the equipment

end of the strap to an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.

• Avoid touching the card with your clothing. The wrist strap protects components from ESD on

the body only.

• Handle the card by its bracket or edges only. Avoid touching the printed circuit board or the

connectors.

• Put the card down only on an anstac surface such as the bag supplied in your kit.

• If you are returning the card to Xilinx product support, place it back in its anstac bag

immediately.

Before You Begin

IMPORTANT! The T2 Telco accelerator card is a delicate and sensive electronic device and should be

installed by a qualied technician only. This equipment is intended for installaon in a restricted access

locaon.
