Ayer, MA (PRWEB) October 27, 2006 -- Hybricon Corporation announces the industry's first ruggedized MicroTCA ATR chassis. Working closely with industry leaders, Hybricon has developed a ruggedized MicroTCA ATR chassis that accommodates double width modules. This ruggedized ATR platform remains compliant with the specification, and addresses key limitations of commercial MicroTCA for military applications.

Based on customer feedback, Hybricon believes that the combination of WiMAX and ruggedized MicroTCA is an attractive open standards COTS-based wireless solution for many military applications. Hybricon has developed a demonstration platform based on our ruggedized ATR that will be unveiled at MILCOM October 23-25 in Washington DC; please come see us in the Intel booth.

Additional features include:

Designed to the latest PICMG AMC and MicroTCA specifications

Locking bars firmly retain the MicroTCA cards into the card cage, providing significant additional resistance to shock and vibration.

Shock isolated MicroTCA card cage inside the ruggedized ATR chassis attenuates the level of shock & vibration that is seen by the MicroTCA cards, allowing the chassis to meet stringent ANSI/VITA 47 and MIL-STD-810 shock & vibration requirements.

MIL-STD-461 EMI/EMC containment.

Military circular connectors are provided for copper and fiber I/O. This I/O can be tailored for specific applications

Power supply front ends converters can be configured for Commercial power, MIL-STD-704 aircraft power or MIL-STD-1275 vehicle power.
