Annapolis was the first company to bring 40Gb & 100Gb bandwidth to OpenVPX with our line of COTS rugged embedded backplanes, chassis and payload cards that are fully designed, qualified and tested for 40/100Gb bandwidths. The WILD40/100 EcoSystem™ for OpenVPX chassis includes both switched and mesh backplane architectures and has already been extensively deployed around the world. In a switched environment, Annapolis has the highest performing OpenVPX Switch on the market.
An accompanying WILD Chassis Manager is a secure VITA 46.11/SOSA-aligned device that can be plugged directly into a backplane or used with an OpenVPX carrier to plug into a backplane as a payload card.

The WILD100 16-Slot 6U OpenVPX Chassis (WC60G0) is a 100Gb Ethernet-enabled COTS rackmount 6U VPX Chassis, Backplane, and Chassis Manager. It incorporates slots for up to 13 Payload Boards, and with three VITA 62 power supplies, the chassis can supply up to 3840W.
It is VITA 65 compliant, SOSA-aligned, and designed and built in USA.
The WILD Single-Slot 6U OpenVPX Chassis is a high-quality 19” rackmount chassis platform consisting of black painted sheet steel enclosure, high performance VITA System backplane, power supply, cooling system and AC/DC power components. Assembled, wired and tested prior to shipment.
WCG000 is a family of quick-turn air-cooled 3U and 6U OpenVPX Chassis with conduction-cooled slots for lab use. They are 100Gb Ethernet-enabled and SOSA™-aligned, and include a Chassis and Backplane. Quick-turn Chassis frames support all WILD100 Backplanes. A Chassis Manager is also available.
Compatible WILD100 FPGA Digitizing/Processing Boards, Switch, Storage, SBC, VITA blocks and cables are also available.
It is VITA 66.5C and VITA 67.3C capable, SOSA-aligned, and designed and built in USA.
The WILD100 16-Slot 19" Top-Loading Beamformer Chassis (WC6C40) is a rugged 6U OpenVPX Chassis that incorporates slots for up to 10 Payload Boards, one Switch, one Clock Card, and with four VITA 62 supplies loaded the chassis can supply up to 3840W.
