6U OpenVPX face plates for rugged embedded computing applications introduced by Pixus

WATERLOO, Ontario – Pixus Technologies in Waterloo, Ontario, is introducing 6U OpenVPX face plates for rugged embedded computing applications.

The panels feature an extra-thick extrusion for rigidity and the ability to attach helicoils on the faceplate. The panels also have a circuit board holder bar that extends along the inside of the 0.8-inch-wide panel.

This bar acts as a stiffener for the embedded computing panel and provides a secure interface for attaching the circuit boards. Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) gaskets and the Pixus Type IVs ejector handles with it's rugged metal engagement claw are optional. Versions in a 3U height or 1.0-inch width are available.

Pixus offers silkscreen and custom cutout services for its face plates. The company also provides filler panels, handles, card guides, rails, circuit board protective covers, and other components in VITA and PICMG based open standard architectures.
