The VTX981 is a single slot 3U VPX chassis for board bring-up and testing of 3U VPX modules. The chassis can accept a front and a rear module (5 HP or 10 HP). The panels on both the front and rear slots are removable for ease of probing and debugging. The P2 connector has option for VITA 66.5 or VITA 66.4.

The VTX981 can be placed on bench in both horizontal and vertical positioning for ease of access.

Power Supply

The VTX981 Universal AC power supply provides 750W to the chassis. The chassis supplies all the necessary power (+12V, -12V, +5V, etc.) to the module in accordance with VITA 46 specifications.The unit also comes with a battery pack which provides the VBAT to the module. The power to VBAT can be switched between the onboard battery pack and the power supply. A sense resistor is fitted to each rail so that a voltmeter can measure power consumption.

Cooling

Variable speed fans provide front and rear cooling to the module.

Backplane

The backplane provides all the necessary VITA 46 signals set by the user (NVMRO, SYSRESET, SYS_CON, driver the dual clock, etc.). All the connectors are installed P0 thru P2 and are routed from the front to the rear.

Health Monitoring

The dual IPMI bus is routed to an external VT007 bench-top shelf manager that monitors the VPX board sensors in compliance to VITA 46.11. The VT007 supports Tier 2 Health Management and can be ordered separately or as an option with VTX981.

JTAG

The backplane breaks-out the JTAG signals via a header connector to enable external connection of a JTAG probe.
