The new Hybricon Gen3 OpenVPX 6U six-slot Backplane is designed for the end-to-end transmission of the high speed data required for demanding ground and airborne C4ISR and EW deployed applications. This backplane supports full-speed, bottleneck-free distribution of data over 40Gbps Ethernet or Infiniband fabrics. It is said to enable the design of a new class of embedded subsystems capable of delivering previously unobtainable levels of performance to support numerous demanding defense and aerospace applications, such as the real-time detection and identification of signals of interest.
