Optimized for VITA 46.30, VITA 47, and VITA 72 applications, Open.Tech’s R-VPX Evolution 2.0 Hybrid Kits offer a game-changing solution to the challenges of integrating high-speed data and power in one rugged, backplane-mated interface. These kits combine R-VPX Evo2 signal connectors and legacy R-VPX power connectors into a mechanically isolated, performance-optimized package—designed specifically for plug-in module configurations where both signal integrity and power density are critical.

Traditional hybrid connectors with mixed compliant pin types often complicate PCB design and increase risk during installation. Our solution? A kit-based modular approach that separates power and signal contacts into discrete, standardized connectors—each with matching compliant pin sizes to ensure easy installation, full compliance, and maximum reliability.

The Evo2 Hybrid Kits include connector variants in 4, 6, and 10 column configurations, enabling creative slot profile designs and tailored solutions for custom applications. Whether you're designing SOSA-aligned systems, CMOSS-compliant backplanes, or OpenVPX payload modules, these hybrid kits give you the flexibility to meet growing power requirements without compromising signal speed or system integrity.

Benefits:

  • Supports 32+ Gbps signaling on Evo2 contacts

  • Retains full legacy power wafer current capacity

  • Eliminates PCB risk from mixed tail sizes

  • Enables creative, high-density slot profiles

  • Easy to install with standard compliant pin footprints

  • Fully qualified to VITA 46.30, VITA 47, and VITA 72

Typical Applications:

  • OpenVPX and SpaceVPX payload modules

  • SOSA™ aligned platforms

  • CMOSS and VITA 65.0/65.1 modular slot profiles

  • Defense, aerospace, and ruggedized embedded systems
