OpenVPX

OpenVPX is an Industry Working Group of 28 defense contractors. OpenVPX was founded by Mercury Systems in January 2009.
The OpenVPX Industry Working Group has provided new standards which will replace VME and VXS standards in future defense
designs.[1]

On October 19, 2009, the OpenVPX working group demonstrated the new standard at MILCOM[2] featuring an OpenVPX backplane
in a Hybricon SFF-4 Small Form Factor conduction-cooled chassis integrated with Curtiss-Wright Controls' small form factor 3U
OpenVPX-compliant cards.[3]

OpenVPX is a fully ratified open standard in the VIT

A (VMEbus International Trade Association) organization. ANSI/VITA 65-2017
is the OpenVPX System Standard with several related specifications for ruggedized mechanical implementation, RF signal
interconnects, optical interconnects, and more. There is a wide ecosystem of board and system/chassis vendors including Pixus
Technologies, Elma Electronic, GE Intelligent Platforms, Concurrent Technologies, CoreEL Technologies[4] Kontron, Mercury
Systems, and many others.
