VITA™ 90 VNX+™ Standard Products And Support

The VITA™ 90 VNX+™ family of standards defines multiple SEARAY™ connectors for both backplane and plug-in-modules in 13 mm & 19 mm stack heights, producing a variety of pin counts to complement Half and Full VITA™ 90.2 Optical/RF Connector Modules and VITA™ 90.3 Power Supply Units. See product test reports below.

Samtec's connector design selected as the VITA™ 90 standard.

VITA™ 90.0 (VNX+) Specified Connectors (SEARAY™)

VITA™ 90.0 - Hardware

All VNX+™ modules use common guide hardware for alignment with the guide pins on the backplane to the receptacles on the PIMs.

VITA™ 90.2 - RF & Optical Connector Modules

VITA™ 90.2 VNX+™ defines additional electromechanical hardware to facilitate high-density, high-speed, coaxial and optical I/O, necessary to support applications requiring RF, video, or high-sensitivity sensor connectivity within the VITA™ 90 VNX+™ ecosystem. Samtec's RF modules fill a variety of needs in both full and half aperture size ranges, where one or two 2x12 MTs, as well as size 16 & 20 gauge coaxial contacts meet 50 Ω & 75 Ω applications. See product test reports below.
