Subracks Provide Housing For cCPI And VME64x Platforms

A new range of subracks and accessories is said to offer designers an innovative set of enclosure building blocks for precisely and quickly configuring housing for CompactPCI and VME64x platforms. The Schroff Pro Series line of subracks is fully IEEE 1101.10 and 1101.11 compliant and consists of configured kits or individual components tailored for a userÕs application. Suited for telecommunications and other high-availability applications, the Pro Series subracks have extruded horizontal rails and card guides to add modularity, flexibility and shock and vibration resistance to the enclosure design. The heavy-duty rails can accommodate the new injector and ejector handles required for cPCI, and the subracks can be converted to shielded versions. Single-unit pricing starts at $88.
