Description
The VTX997 is a VPX rugged chassis with two 3U VPX conduction cool slots.
The VTX997 backplane is designed specifically based on the VPX Payload modules.
Power Supplies
Power is provided via external power supply.
Cooling and Temperature Sensors
The VTX997 cooling is done thru the wedge locks. The wedge locks are set to a fix temperature or follow a temperature protocol. There are total of 16 temp sensors that monitor the wedge temperature and keep the wedge at a set temperature.
The VTX997 is front to back cooling with variable speed fan based on the wedge temperature set.
Backplane
The backplane is routed per customer requirement as well as the I/O breakout.
I/O
The I/O from each slot is routed to connectors so they could be monitored from outside of the environmental chamber and/or shock/Vibration table.
Health Management
The module also routes its IPMBA/B to a connector so an external health management could monitor each slot Sensor Data Records (SDR).
