Press release date: July 15, 2009
AYER, Massachusetts, July 15, 2009, Hybricon Corporation, a world class solutions company providing integrated system solutions, electronic enclosures, backplanes, card cage assemblies and subsystem interconnect packaging for military, telecom, medical, and commercial applications is pleased to achieve the June 2009 Editor's Choice Award from Open Systems Publishing's VME Critical Systems Magazine.
Chris A. Ciufo, Group Editorial Director for OpenSystems Media, Military and Aerospace Group writes, "An avid and longtime supporter of both VME and PICMG standards, Hybricon is routinely at the forefront of new technology - and their 3U VPX backplane is a good case in point. While it's true that VITA 46.0 (VPX) Gen 1 is undergoing some modifications to Gen 2 to accommodate new system management features and address some interoperability enhancements via VITA 65, the market has been consuming VPX boards for several years. Therefore, there's a need for backplanes for today's VPX - and tomorrow's version".
"This five-slot backplane works with the smaller 3U version of VPX, which is gaining traction in defense applications because it offers high I/O density, serial fabrics, and conduction cooling in a very small (3U) space. Compliant with VITA 46.0, VITA 46.10 (RTM Connectors), VITA 46.3 (Serial RapidIO), and VITA 46.4 (PCIe), the backplane also includes keying and alignment. Additionally, there are geographic address pins, "Reserved for Future Use" (RFU) signal pairs, JTAG connections, and system management signals. It can be ordered with optional JP3 jumper-selectable NVMEM Read Only, along with optional battery backup at JP4". (VME and Critical Systems magazine. Copyright OpenSystems Media, 2009.
