A rugged, short 1/2 ATR that is designed for deployable applications requiring alignment with The Open Group Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) has been introduced by Elma Electronic.
According to its developers, the ATR-3600S is a six-slot chassis that accepts 3U plug-in cards (PICs) as well as a VITA 62 power supply, all aligned to SOSA.

“The increased availability of plug-in cards aligned to SOSA is accelerating the speed of integration and enabling more rapid field testing of complex sensor systems. The ATR-3600S builds on that by giving integrators a COTS-based, ready-to-deploy, SOSA aligned chassis to host a range of SOSA plug-in cards,” explained Elma Electronic.
Further, the ATR-3600S can be integrated with plug-in cards including compute- or I/O-intensive processors, Ethernet and PCIe switches, PNT and radio frequency transceivers; a wide range of interface connections is also supported.
Additionally, the modular chassis of the ATR-3600S offers features for reliable and easy operation and it is designed to meet MIL-STD-810 and can be configured for mission-critical applications such as tactical communications, C5ISR, EW, SIGINT and more.
The company explained that the lightweight unit can also be used in compact, low load applications and includes several military grade components, such as MIL-STD-38999 connectors and high-altitude fan tray that operates under extreme conditions. Likewise, the power supply and line filter combination offers EMC shielding compliant to MIL-STD-461E.
