Some requirements have no catalogue answer: a board that must fit a legacy chassis, a card that must combine networking with on-board acceleration or encryption, a product that must carry your brand into your market. GRT runs this as a documented service line — FPGA product software and hardware custom development, custom-shaped boards, and OEM/ODM production of network adapters — from the same Beijing engineering base that produces the standard range.
What the custom practice covers
- FPGA soft/hardware custom development
- Custom and special-form-factor board design
- Domestic fiber network cards, RAID cards and HBA cards
- Acceleration and encryption cards
- Specialised lines: optical bypass devices, WDM equipment, aerospace-grade and military-grade custom equipment, dedicated secure-communication devices (per published range)
- OEM/ODM production: your brand on GRT platforms
The engagement pattern is conventional and low-risk. Start from the nearest standard product — most "custom" requirements are a standard board with a different bracket, firmware personality, port arrangement or brand. Evaluate that base unit under the free loaner testing service. Then scope the delta with our engineers: what changes, what it costs, what the minimum order and schedule look like. Custom project parameters are quoted per project, never from a generic rate card.
Two honest boundaries. First, custom hardware rewards volume: the engineering is real, and it amortises over production quantity, so very small runs may be better served by a standard model. Second, delivery parameters for custom work are defined in the project agreement, not promised on this page. Bring us the requirement — chassis, function, quantity, target date — and we will give you a scoped answer.
What is the minimum order for OEM/ODM?
It depends on how much changes from the base product — branding-only differs from board-level changes. Describe the requirement and quantity and we will quote the threshold with the project.
Can you develop a fully bespoke board?
Yes — FPGA development and custom-shaped boards are core services. The scoping conversation starts from function and interfaces, not from our catalogue.
Do you offer evaluation before committing?
Yes. The free loaner testing service covers standard base products, which is how most custom projects begin.
