Modules feature easy-to-use push-pull handle
Schroff
AdvancedMC modules
Electronics packaging company Schroff has introduced a range of AdvancedMC modules that incorporate a push-pull handle with a profile claimed to be much lower than that of conventional alternatives.
Fully compliant with the PICMG AMC.0 R2.0 RC1.2 specification, the new handle is designed for microswitch activation and features an integral blue LED with light pipe to provide clear visual indication of module status during hot-swap.
To remove a module from a system, the user simply presses the black button, which springs forward, and then pulls the handle out to unlock the module and extract it.
Available with either stainless-steel or aluminium U-shaped front panels, the modules come in single and double, mid-size and full-size versions, as defined in the AdvancedMC standard.
Filler modules are available in the same range of sizes.
All module and filler variants are fully shielded, using lateral and lower EMC gasketing and copper-nickel-coated textile cladding.
