Leveraging VNX+ and QMC Open Standards for Next-Generation Embedded Defense Systems

November 5, 2025

The VNX+ (VITA 90) small form factor module standard, along with the new QMC (VITA 93) small form factor mezzanine I/O standard are essential new tools in the system designer’s toolkit. Integrators have begun to realize how they can leverage MOSA-based COTS components in their small SWAP-constrained platforms that previously required custom electronics—reducing development time by months and significantly lowering system costs.

In this webcast, you'll learn:
• How VNX+ and QMC standards complement each other in system architectures
• Examples of where these standards excel in military and aerospace applications
• Key specifications and performance characteristics of both standards
• Integration strategies and best practices
• How to evaluate if VNX+/QMC is right for your next project

Who should attend:
• Systems architects and hardware engineers designing embedded defense platforms
• Program managers looking for technology options for SWAP-constrained uses
• Anyone exploring alternatives to custom electronics development

What you'll take away:
• Understanding of the ecosystem and available components
• Decision framework for VNX+/QMC vs. traditional approaches
• Practical knowledge to implement these standards in your designs
