VPX | VPX Backplane

Paving the way for open architecture and multivendor interoperability, OpenVPX opens up new definitions for VPX backplanes and systems, enabling a healthy ecosystem of product choices for use in applications requiring mission-critical, high performance computing.

VITA 46 is the base standard that defines VPX. OpenVPX, or VITA 65, includes an entire family of standards; in addition to the base VITA 46.x standards, other related standards include:

  • VITA 47.x Environments, Design and Construction, Safety and Quality for Plug-In Units
  • VITA 48.x VPX REDI – Ruggedized Enhanced Design Implementation Mechanical specifications
  • VITA 49.x VITA Radio Transport Layers
  • VITA 62.x Modular Power Supply for VPX
  • VITA 65.x OpenVPX System
  • VITA 66.x Optical Interconnect on VPX
  • VITA 67.x VPX Coaxial Interconnect
  • VITA 68.x VPX Compliance Channels
  • VITA 78.x Space VPX
