The 1264C is a low-cost, 6-slot, C-size VXI chassis, designed and
built with ISO-9001 certified Racal Instruments quality. This chassis
benefits from Racal Instruments' years of experience as a leading
VXIbus chassis manufacturer, with performance features normally
found only in high-end, 13-slot chassis.
The 1264C is ideal for portable applications.
Available rack ear and slide kits also make this chassis the natural
choice for rackmount applications with limited space or budget.
Racal Instruments recommends the sister model 1264C/D
for rackmount applications requiring an integral cable tray (see
separate datasheet).
Installed modules are recessed three inches
from the front of the chassis, forming a protective area for connectors
and cable loops. An optional aluminum front door is available for
mounting connectors, small receivers, keyboards, or displays.
The 1264C uses a modular power supply assembly
with a wireless interconnect system. This provides 800 W of available
power and 500 W of useable power. Its high dynamic current ensures
crisp signals and accurate measurements from installed modules.
The chassis includes status indicators for all seven power supply
rails and fan operation.
Ample cooling air is delivered to the modules
by means of a pressurized plenum system for even airflow distribution.
The chassis includes Racal Instruments' unique slot blockers, which
are easily installed to prevent cooling air from diverting through
unused slots.
