WATERLOO, Ontario – Pixus Technologies in Waterloo, Ontario, is introducing the RiCool OpenVPX chassis for test and measurement, as well as development, of rugged 3U OpenVPX embedded computing boards.

The chassis is loaded with conduction-cooled card guides to enable a mix-and-match configuration of air-cooled and conduction-cooled modules.

The RiCool chassis has a five-slot OpenVPX backplane to the BKP3-DIS05-15.2.13 profile. The chassis fits as many as 16 front and RTM (rear transition module) slots at a 1-inch pitch.

With the fans above the card guides, the chassis provides cooling in a front-to-rear format, which prevents blockage of airflow from the RTM cards.

It is for high-power or high-card-count deployed and development applications. Versions with VITA 66 (optical) or VITA 67 (RF) embedded computing slot options also are available.
