Rugged OpenVPX Rackmount Enclosure for Extra Deep Boards
                       

 

Pixus has developed MIL-rugged OpenVPX 19" rackmount enclosures that support deeper modules than the standard 160mm depth of the architecture.
 
Many designers utilize OpenVPX or its general mechanicals for their designs. Combining advanced RF or other device capability into the standard sized modules for the VITA 46/48 architecture is not always practical. To support this trend, Pixus has developed both 19" commercial and rugged rackmount chassis with special card guide trays and deeper card cages. The enclosures support standard 80mm Rear Transition Module (RTM) space on the back side of the backplane as well as customized versions for longer RTMs.

Desktop Cases That Hold Your OpenVPX Chassis Platform or other Instrumentation
  
    
The Pixus RiCase brand instrumentation cases typically hold electronics equipment.  But, they can also be used as a small cabinet for your OpenVPX or other Eurocard backplane-based system.   Contact Pixus for more details!

Air Slot Blocker Boards for OpenVPX
 
 
 
The Pixus OpenVPX Air Slot Blocker Boards are plug-in boards for blocking the airflow in an otherwise empty OpenVPX slot.   They come in 3U and 6U sizes in the 5HP (1.0") width commonly used in the backplane architecture.  
 
The air slot blocker boards help optimize airflow by forcing the available airflow to pass through utilized slots. They fill spare slots that many applications utilize for future expansion.   The air slot blockers boards come in versions with and without injector/ejector handles that feature the renowned Pixus rugged metal engagement "claw". The blockers are also a convenient tool for prototyping/testing.
