Pixus Announces a Mini Cube Test Chassis for SOSA Aligned & OpenVPX

Pixus Technologies, a provider of embedded computing and enclosure solutions, has released its most compact test/development chassis, the Mini Cube. The chassis is used for prototyping 3U OpenVPX and SOSA-aligned systems.

The Mini Cube supports 5x VPX/SOSA aligned slots with a VITA 62 PSU or 4x slots with an internal low-cost 600W Pixus modular power supply with universal A.C. input. Backplanes at various speeds, SOSA-aligned slot profiles, and power and ground-only format options are available. Card guides are interchangeable for air-cooled or conduction-cooled boards.

The compact Pixus Mini Cube chassis has a convenient, foldable carry handle and flip-up feet for a more presentable display. The enclosure also supports Rear Transition Modules (RTMs).  

Pixus offers OpenVPX backplanes, chassis platforms, managers, and specialty products. The company also provides enclosure solutions in VME, cPCI Serial, AdvancedTCA, and instrumentation case formats.
