The Dell 540-BDJN is a PCIe 3.0 x16 VRAN accelerator card based on Intel's ACC100 architecture, designed to offload virtualized radio access network (vRAN) workloads from general-purpose CPUs. This adapter provides dedicated hardware acceleration for 4G LTE and 5G signal processing tasks including forward error correction, modulation/demodulation, and channel coding, reducing compute overhead on host systems. The card supports full-duplex operation across multiple frequency bands and integrates seamlessly into Dell PowerEdge servers via standard x16 PCIe slots. Typical deployments include carrier-grade telecommunications infrastructure, network function virtualization platforms, and edge computing environments requiring deterministic latency and high-throughput signal processing. The ACC100 architecture enables efficient scaling of vRAN deployments while maintaining power efficiency compared to CPU-only implementations. Compatible with Dell PowerEdge 14G and newer server generations supporting PCIe 3.0. Tested and guaranteed; available via quote.
