The 4 slot 100Gb SOSA Aligned 3U VPX Development Chassis is engineered for high-throughput prototyping and lab integration of advanced VPX-based systems. This unit supports four SOSA-aligned payload modules and integrates a 100Gb-capable power and ground backplane, with two fully populated slots and dual full-width VITA 67 interfaces. Optimized for defense applications, it accommodates both air- and conduction-cooled modules via rapid-conversion slot inserts, enabling swift adaptation for varied testing requirements.
The open-access architecture, combined with a reinforced carry handle, ensures mobility without sacrificing operational robustness. Push-pull cooling across the front with rear-transition module airflow and an automatic fan controller (featuring manual override) enhance thermal stability under demanding loads. Weighing just 16 lbs and powered by a robust 1000W integrated AC-to-DC supply, the chassis delivers stable voltages across all VPX rail requirements—ideal for lab environments simulating deployed defense system performance.
