VPX Board J1 Signal Assignment

VPX is defined by VITA46. VPX boards may still follows the IEEE 1101 for board size but use different connectors.
However a VPX board may also use the REDI standard [VITA 48] for a mechanical form factor.
VPX cards may be either 3U or 6U high and 160mm deep. The new VPX connector runs up to 6.26Gbps
The VPX board style defines a new direction for the VME bus standard and is not backward compatible with the VME specification.
However, manufacturers do produce backplanes that handle both VME and VPX cards.
