From unmanned aerial vehicles and unmanned aircraft systems (UAVs, UASs) to unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), unmanned surface vehicles (USVs), and unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs), the future of autonomous mobility is rapidly unfolding. Open.Tech by Amphenol offers versatile solutions designed to meet the diverse requirements of unmanned applications operating across land, air, and sea. Our modular designs enable flexible configurations, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of unmanned systems, and our scalable solutions provide the reliability and performance needed for mission-critical operations in any environment.
Unmanned vehicles are rapidly replacing human operators in operational environments around the world. These new families of unmanned systems require vast amounts of high-bandwidth and high-speed data transfer capabilities to carry out their missions with seamless precision – capabilities made possible through high-speed open architecture and commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) modular connectors and interconnect technologies made by Amphenol.
As a global leader in the design and manufacturer of interconnect solutions, we have vast experience in the development of Open Architecture technologies, backed by an active involvement in Open Standards communities such as the Sensor Open Systems Architecture™ (SOSA) consortium and the VMEbus International Trade Association (VITA).
Developed in alignment with The Open Group Sensor Open Systems Architecture™ (SOSA) technical standard, MIL-HD2 provides developers with a readily available, robust open architecture solution for tighter card pitches and chassis designs where space requirements and density are critical. These connectors are available in 3-, 4-, and 6-pair configurations, providing the MIL-embedded market with the highest count of differential pairs available today in a 3U configuration at 56Gb/s PAM 4 speeds. This series was selected by the SOSA Consortium and provides a SOSA aligned solution for nextgen switch and payload card requirements enabling the MIL-embedded market to meet next-gen performance levels while still meeting COTS requirements.
Open.Tech offers a full line of VITA 67.1, 67.2, 67.3 and hybrid RF/Fiber 66.5 backplane modules, plug-in modules and contacts that are designed for side-by-side implementation with VITA 46 hardware. Open.Tech VITA interconnects are the latest addition to the VPX platform and are available in high-density SMPM and SMPS series.
Amphenol’s VITA 66 family of fiber optic connector products are ruggedized blind-mate optical MT module/backplane connector systems designed to meet the VITA 66.1 and 66.4 open architecture specifications. These products can be utilized in VPX systems as defined per VITA 46 or as standalone blind-mate optical connector solutions. Amphenol’s connector systems provide reliable high-speed connections for the most extreme commercial and military environments.
Improving off original VITA 46 standards, Amphenol’s R-VPX Evolution 2.0 is the next generation of high-speed ruggedized backplane connectors. R-VPX Evolution 2.0 series connectors are designed and optimized to achieve data rates in excess of 25 Gb/s, meeting VITA 46.3 requirements. This makes the Evolution 2.0 Series connectors among the fastest VITA 46.30 connectors in the world. These connectors are tested to VITA 46 levels and are backward intermateable with R-VPX, R-VPX EVO 1 and VITA 46 qualified connectors.
The R-VPX Evolution series is specifically designed to support the latest high-speed protocols while meeting OpenVPX requirements. These high-speed modules are capable of data rate transfer speeds of more than 16 Gb/s and meet the performance requirements of VITA 46 and VITA 47 standards while being intermateable with existing VITA 46 backplane connectors. Optimized for speed and ruggedized to endure harsh environments in military applications across the board.
