XPand1010
6U VPX Two-Slot Conduction-Cooled Development System
The XPand1010 system is a low-cost debug, development, and display platform for 6U conduction-cooled VPX cards. It supports up to two 6U VPX cards, each with direct I/O access via connectors on the backplane.
The XPand1010 backplane provides a high-speed backplane fabric - J1 ports A, B, C, and D are cross-connected between the two VPX slots. Ethernet, RS-232/RS-422 serial, USB, SATA, and DVI signals are routed from each VPX slot to corresponding connectors on the front and rear panels.
The XPand1010's design allows for a compact, stand-alone development platform for X-ES 6U VPX SBCs. The XPand1010 is the ideal solution for rapid prototyping of next generation 6U VPX designs where only a basic stand-alone system is needed.
