The PIBs have several power bugs for 3.3, 5, and 12V power. A 26-pin header accommodates all of the general purpose IO signals from the PSUs.
The power boards also have breakaway tabs at the bottom of the board. This allows the optional blockage of airflow helping to optimise chassis cooling. Conformal coating and customisation is available for all of Pixus’ power boards and backplanes. Pixus Technologies has aggressively expanded its OpenVPX offering in 2015; with several COTS chassis platforms, backplanes, panels/handles for OpenVPX boards, and new backplane configurations. Pixus also offers power boards and backplanes that support other VITA and PICMG architectures.
