The SCVPX3U-12 VPX starter cage from GE
Intelligent Platforms provides a flexible,
cost-effective platform designed to support
GE Intelligent Platforms’ latest 3U VPX
modules. The platform is suitable for
software development, integration, and test
of VPX board level modules.
GE Intelligent Platforms’ range of circuit card
assemblies (CCAs) are designed for use in a
variety of convection, conduction and
airflow-through module build styles. System
integrators can develop and field-test this
platform, secure in the knowledge that the
same cards used in the laboratory and field
demonstrations can be ordered in different
build styles as required to meet the
environmental requirements of a range of
airborne, ground and naval platforms.
The SCVPX3U-12 comprises a 12-slot
backplane, card cage, PSU, cooling fans,
provision for auxiliary storage and all
internal power wiring.
The card cage incorporates guide rails and
alignment keys on the backplane to assist
with correct board insertion. Once installed,
cards can be firmly secured by front panel
fixing screws. Cooling is by push convection,
using fans at the bottom of the card cage.
Airflow is adjustable by a front panel knob.
With the boards accessible from the front of
the enclosure, to allow easy access to rear
I/O, a 6U area behind the entire backplane is
kept free. This allows easy fitting of GE
Intelligent Platforms’ range of rear transition
modules (RTMs) and any associated cabling.
