An alarm card that can be used in various OpenVPX, VME/VME64x, CompactPCI, cPCI Serial and other open standard architecture chassis platforms provides the system with basic monitoring and control functions including; voltage levels, power supply health, temperature and fan monitoring/control. The board monitors the four common power rails in Eurocard-based systems of 5, 3.3, 12, […]

The 9U RiCool chassis platform for 6U OpenVPX boards features dual hot-swappable 191 CFM fans for cooling up to 2,500 W. The design allows the use of Rear Transition Modules (RTMs) in all slots. Rear-pluggable PSUs provide power for the VPX and custom rails, available in various wattage and output options. The 14-slot design required […]

Customized solutions are available for enclosure paneling for 3U and 6U OpenVPX and other Eurocard-based systems. Some front or rear panels for VITA or PICMG-based enclosures cover the full length of the 19-in rackmount or smaller chassis. The panels/doors often need cutouts for I/O or special access needs. Pixus offers the panels/doors with options for […]

New OpenVPX backplanes are designed for horizontal-mount enclosures. The horizontal-mount backplanes can be placed into 1U-4U tall 19-in rackmount OpenVPX enclosures. They provide enough space to have three 3U slots or one 3U and one 6U slot side-by-side. So, a wide range of configurations and size options are available. The backplanes are typically designed to […]

Versatile backplane/chassis configurations are geared for 3U and 6U OpenVPX and SOSA development. The versatile development enclosures start with a line of single-slot power and ground backplanes in various 3U and 6U configurations. This includes VITA 65 (standard VPX), VITA 66.4 (VPX with optical), and VITA 67.3 types (VPX with RF). The backplanes can be […]

3U and 6U OpenVPX power and ground backplanes come in several configurations. With the SOSA/HOST efforts and move to optical and RF interfaces over OpenVPX, Pixus has developed multiple styles that allow for versatility in prototyping. The 1-slot backplanes come in VITA 65 (VPX only), VITA 66.4 (optical), and VITA 67.3 (RF) formats. The optical […]

A new OpenVPX chassis platform supports both 160-mm-deep (standard OpenVPX) and 220-mm-deep (SpaceVPX) boards. The open-frame chassis features up to four slots at 1.0-in. pitch of each board depth type. The modular enclosure allows various board pitches to be utilized at 0.2-in. increments. Card guides to support both air-cooled boards and conduction-cooled boards are standard. […]

The first in the 1U SlimBox OpenVPX series is a three-slot version for 3U boards. A modular fixed power supply provides up to 600 W of power and one Rear Transition Module (RTM) is supported. A hybrid configuration option is available with 1x 6U slot and 1x 3U slot. In lieu of the fixed-mount power […]
