Type X Slimline Board Ejector Handle/Panel Sets from Pixus Save Panel Space

Pixus Technologies, a provider of embedded computing and enclosure solutions, offers new 3U and 6U handle/panel sets for OpenVPX and other architecture boards.

The Pixus Slimline Type X handle/panel sets come in a 1.0” slot pitch standard but special panel sizes are optional upon request.  The all metal handles are ideal for the high insertion forces of OpenVPX.   With a thin 4.05mm wide level, the design maximizes the amount of panel space available while providing excellent leverage for easier board insertion/removal.  

Pixus offers products in commercial, development, and MIL rugged formats.   This includes components, high-performance backplanes, ATR chassis, rackmount enclosures, chassis managers, and more. The company also provides IEEE and Eurocard components for the embedded computer market.
