LCR’s Rugged Test Systems enable functional and environmental test and demonstration in a chassis that is deployment capable. RTS chassis support system integration, backplane design and I/O configuration in a single chassis as developers proceed from development to demonstration to deployment of VPX / SOSA aligned systems. The second step in LCR’s develop, demonstrate, deploy support offering.

In OpenVPX and SOSA aligned systems, the path towards deployment solutions often begins on the benchtop in an open access development chassis. LCR’s Develop – Demonstrate – Deploy approach includes products designed to facilitate smooth and fast transition between each stage of system realization to ensure on time delivery and reliable performance in critical applications.

Increasing data rates and processing speeds in new high speed sensor and compute equipment used in defense scenarios is pushing the thermal limits in 3U VPX and SOSA aligned systems. Traditional methods are challenged in ensuring failsafe operation in critical C5ISR applications. Advanced chassis designs can address these thermal issues now common in the embedded computing industry.

Liquid cooled electronic packaging solutions address the thermal management challenges in systems that support advanced signal processing, compute-intensive workloads and the growing use of AI algorithms and machine learning models in embedded systems. Our evolving liquid cooled product family leverages our air cooled chassis designs and are intended for VPX and SOSA aligned system architectures.

LCR’s line of development systems for VPX and SOSA aligned payloads support small to large scale development with our DK3HS-4 for 4 slot systems and our DK3HS for 8 slot systems. 100Gb performance in platforms with open access and configuration flexibility for fast time to deployment. VITA 67.3 RF and optical I/O connectivity. The first step in LCR’s develop, demonstrate, deploy support offering.

LCR’s Chassis Manager is a VITA 46.11-compliant solution for OpenVPX and SOSA-aligned systems. Open-source software enables in-field code upgrades and a user-friendly GUI simplifies setup and maintenance. It monitors chassis health, reports anomalies, and supports corrective actions. Mounting options support both rugged deployment and development-phase activities
