WATERLOO, Ontario – Pixus Technologies in Waterloo, Ontario, is introducing horizontal-mount OpenVPX embedded computing chassis for 3U, 6U, or hybrid versions.
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 Watts of power and one Rear Transition Module (RTM) is supported.
The chassis offers a hybrid configuration option with 1x 6U slot and 1x 3U slot. In lieu of the fixed-mount power supply option, one of the 3U slots can be replaced with a pluggable 3U PSU slot per VITA 62. This configuration enables designers to use RTMs.
The Pixus 1U SlimBox supports various backplane speed options, and the initial design supports speeds as fast as 40 Gigabit Ethernet and PCI Express Gen3. Optional card guides for conduction-cooled modules also are available.
