Dual Slot Rugged Chassis for VPX Systems

The SF01 is a dual-slot rugged VPX chassis designed for both development and deployment, enabling a seamless transition from benchtop integration to mission-ready systems. Engineered for 3U VPX and SOSA-aligned payloads, it supports high-speed data, optical, and RF connectivity in a compact 2+1 configuration.

Built to perform in demanding environments, the SF01 combines proven conduction-cooled design with optional high-CFM fan assist, handling a wide range of thermal loads. Its rugged architecture supports operation across extended temperatures and high shock and vibration conditions.

With flexible I/O, rapid backplane access, and deployment-ready construction, the SF01 accelerates system validation while reducing time from lab to field.
