CompactPCI backplanes slim for subracks
APW has further extended its range of CompactPCI backplanes with the introduction of 3 and 6U "reduced width" models, available in two-, three-, four-, five- and six-slot variants.
400 Watt plug-in PSUs optimised for CompactPCI
APW has introduced a range of 400W AC and DC input high performance power supplies, providing standard CompactPCI voltages of 3.3V/68A, 5V/25A, +12V/5A and -12V/1.5A.
The family also features a unique tamper-proof illuminated green switch to prevent inadvertent switch-off in mission-critical uses.
For use exclusively in APW's IMnet and IMserv networking enclosures, a special design of bracket is supplied.
In common with all IMnet and IMserv accessories, power strips can be secured without the use of tools or fixings.
The brackets hook into either the standard 19" cage nut apertures, the standard square holes in the verticals or the panel mounting supports; snapping the power strip unit into the brackets forces lugs to engage, positively securing the power strip assembly to the enclosure.
The power strips can be mounted horizontally or vertically in the sides of the IMnet or IMserv, outside the 19" panel area.
Alternatively, they can be mounted in the vertical cable channels alongside the 19" panel mounting area.
The 5-way version is suitable for mounting in any 19" aperture; the plastic end caps contain standard earpieces, which are simply pulled out if the unit is to be positioned horizontally using the 19" panel mounting square holes.
To attach the units to panels or other flat surfaces, moulded brackets that snap-fit into slots on the back of the panel strip are supplied.
