Getting Started with Axelera Server 150p
This guide is for customers who have an Axelera Server 150p card. It links everything you need to get up and running: system compatibility, hardware and software installation, CAD files, and regulatory certifications.
System compatibility
The card is single-slot, full-height, and a little under three-quarter length. It uses a PCIe Gen 3.0 x16 connector and an 8-pin PCIe cable for auxiliary power.
The card will not function from slot power alone.
- Tested host PCs
- Datasheet — full specifications and mechanical drawings.
Installation
Install the card following the Axelera Server 150p installation guide, which also covers installing multiple cards in a server. Each host has its own procedure, so also refer to your system's user manual.
Next, install the Voyager SDK, which enables inference with Metis (drivers, evaluation tools, and APIs). Clone the Voyager SDK GitHub repository and run the install script, following the install guide. Then try the first inference walkthrough, and see the SDK documentation for an overview.
