Options for this aerospace backplane include conformal coating and the installation of Rear Transition Module (RTM) connectors.
WATERLOO, Ontario – Pixus Technologies in Waterloo, Ontario, is introducing a three-slot 3U OpenVPX backplane with the ultra-rugged KVPX style connector for harsh-environment aerospace applications.
Compliant to the VITA 63.0 Hyperboloid Alternative Connector for VPX standard, the backplane features a BKP3-CEN03-15.2.9 routing profile.
Options include conformal coating and the installation of Rear Transition Module (RTM) connectors. The initial embedded computing design was built to support PCI Express Gen3 speeds, but Pixus offers versions of its standard OpenVPX backplanes as fast as 100 Gigabit Ethernet.
