6U VXI-C Size High Power Receiver Crate
The 6U VXI‑C Size High Power Receiver Crate is a robust, front-access, high-density VXI chassis (C-size, 6U × 340 mm) offering 13 slots and up to 6 kW of DC power capacity.
Specifications
- High-power 6U VXI-C crate capable of delivering up to 6kW DC via modular UEP 6021 PSU
- 13-slot VXI backplane with rugged 19“, 10 U enclosure for demanding test applications
- Advanced dual cooling: temperature-controlled fan tray with high-volume airflow and air filter for optimal thermal managment
- Comprehensive monitoring/control via integrated CML with Ethernet/RS232/CAN/USB capabilities
- Built to 6000-series high-realibility standards with full protection, modular mechanics, and isolated DC power distrubtion
It features enhanced cooling with a temperature-controlled high-pressure fan tray, modular design, and advanced microprocessor-based diagnostics for demanding test environments.
The crate combines a rugged steel-aluminum 10U enclosure with a 13-slot monolithic VXI backplane featuring active termination and automatic daisy-chain. Cooling is provided by a temperature-controlled high-pressure fan tray with air filter, supporting advanced diagnostics via a microprocessor with LED display and remote Ethernet interface. The modular power system uses “Cavity-VHF” switching technology to deliver up to 6 kW of DC power through programmable, auto-ranging power blocks with full protection and excellent noise performance (<10 mVpp). Designed for mission-critical test and instrumentation setups, the crate balances serviceability with high performance.
