Product Overview:

NIS’s new small footprint, instrumentation-style enclosure is the newest in NIS’ lineup of COTS enclosures. Its 42HP internal width accommodates up to ten (10) 6U x 160mm boards on 4HP centers (0.8 inch); with a VPX configuration, the maximum board count is eight (8). One or two PICMG 2.11 hot swap/redundant/N+1 plug-in power supplies are also accommodated, with either AC or DC input.

As with all NIS enclosures, Model 4506 may be configured with a 6U Eurocard backplane, such as VME64x, CompactPCI®, PXI, or VPX/OpenVPX. Optionally, a 6U x 80 mm rear transition module (RTM) subrack may be installed.

Installed below the front subrack is a fan tray that provides aggressive air movement up through the front subrack and channeled through a specially designed plenum that runs along the top of the enclosure, with air egressed out the top/rear. NIS’ advanced plenum design ensures minimal internal air turbulence and vortex phenomena that impede airflow and adversely impact the operation of the system’s fans.

The 4506 may be configured with NIS’s μP-based System Environmental Monitor (SEM). The SEM monitors and controls critical system operational parameters such as temperature, fan speed, and input and output power; additionally, the SEM contains user-definable analog and digital channels as well as HTTP and SNMP protocols (in firmware)
