3U VPX 50G Development Chassis - "Nessie”
Description:
Mysteriously fast. Not just a legend. Nessie is the only development chassis with high density SOSA V91 connectors for next-generation VPX chassis at 50Gbps. Nessie provides the scalability to support rapid development, demonstration and evaluation of MIL-HD2 Next-Gen SOSA/VITA 91 aligned connectors for next generation switch and payload card requirements.
It enables shortened design cycles for faster time to deployment. Nessie allows fast backplane replacement and fast conversion between air and conduction cooled slot inserts.
The open frame design includes backplane, power supply, fan cooling and rear transition slots in support of a variety of test functions.
Nessie comes standard with an 6 slot, 1.2" pitch power and ground 50Gb backplane to support your development efforts. The chassis has a balanced 12V / 5V power supply for mixed power payloads and a 12V centric power supply is available on request. Both support current and emerging VPX and SOSA aligned module power requirements. Nessie is part of Amphenol’s development solutions supporting VPX system development and hardware convergence and interoperability initiatives of the US Department of Defense.
