Pixus Technologies has introduced a 1U MicroTCA chassis that boasts advanced power management features such as failover, remote management, and power sequencing. The upgraded PXS0108 chassis enables a mix-and-match deployment approach for the MicroTCA Carrier Hub (MCH), power, and payload modules.
The chassis offers options for one or two MCH modules, single or dual power supplies, and multiple-size variants of Advanced Mezzanine Cards (AMCs). It's worth noting that MicroTCA is a smaller form-factor version of the AdvancedTCA architecture and that AMCs, which are used in many AdvancedTCA applications as a daughter card, are the core modules in MicroTCA systems.
The chassis can be used in a wide range of communication, industrial, and defense applications. The six-slot MicroTCA system platform has backplane options of up to PCIe Gen3 speeds. Furthermore, a 40-GbE backplane option is also available upon customer request.
Pixus offers MicroTCA chassis platforms in 1U rugged, 2U, 5U, and 8U heights. The supplier of embedded computing and enclosure solutions also provides chassis platforms for OpenVPX, AdvancedTCA, and legacy CompactPCI and VME standards.
