Revision of Existing Standard

DRAFT/VITA 74.0-2022x: Compliant System Small Form Factor Module  Standard

Abstract: This standard meets the growing needs for improved Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) with a rugged, low cost, fast serial fabric interconnect based Plug-In Module, whilst leveraging many proven features of existing VITA standards.
