VPX

3U VPX

VPX uses the high-speed multi-gig connector in a mesh topology, vastly increasing the potential bandwidth of the system. While maintaining backward compatibility with legacy VME technology via preservation of the VMEbus 3U mechanical form factor and through-mapping of the current VMEbus signals to the VITA 46 connectors. OpenVPX versions are underway.

6U VPX

VPX uses the high-speed multi-gig connector in a mesh topology, vastly increasing the potential bandwidth of the system. While maintaining backward compatibility with legacy VME technology via preservation of the VMEbus 6U mechanical form factor and through-mapping of the current VMEbus signals to the VITA 46 connectors. OpenVPX versions are underway.
6U VPX Hybrid

VPX is a high performance architecture using switched serial fabrics, typically in a mesh topology that offers tremendous badwidth potential. While different from the traditional VME64 P0/P1/P2 backplane architecture, VPX can be compatible with legacy systems in "hybrid" backplanes. The VMEbus signals can go across the MultiGig high-speed connectors to the legacy VME/64x slots. VME64x uses the VME parallel bus across a 160-pin DIN connector. OpenVPX versions are underway.
6U VPX Development Backplane

VPX is a high-performance architecture using switched serial fabrics, typically in a mesh topology that offers tremendous bandwidth potential. While different from the traditional VME64 P0/P1/P2 backplane architecture, VPX can be compatible with legacy systems in “hybrid” backplanes. The VMEbus signals can go across the MultiGig high-speed connectors to the legacy VME/64x slots.
VPX Test Backplane

The Elma Bustronic 2-slot test backplane is a unique tool that lets VPX card developers and system integrators test VPX boards. The device allows the user to power up test their J1 fabric connections as they would be interconnected in the target application. Signals can be passed from one slot to the next via high speed interconnecting cables, via signals introduced through the J1 fabric connector, or accessed on the J1 fabric connector using the test backplane’s SMA and SATA cable headers.
VPX Power & Ground

The VPX power and ground development backplane is a simple and cost-effective development tool. All of the pins are user defined. Power for 3.3V, 5V and 12V are included. The 7U version is standard and a 3U version is available upon request. The rear connectors are all fully loaded from RJ0-RJ6.
