Another long-existing player making this type of product is Hal-Versa Engineering (HVE) 1684 Dell Ave. Campbell, Ca 95008 (408) 370-4666 (800) TRANSL8 They make a wide variety of VME-to-X backplane connections, and many have reported successful use of same, though my own experience is only through hearsay. Also note that the most current issue of the VMEbus Compatible Products Directory from VITA (10229 N. Scottsdale Rd, Scottsdale, Az 85253, (602) 951-8866) includes 8 manufacturers of VME-VME connectors and a total of 27 manufacturers of VME-X connectors, where X includes Multibus, DEC busses, STD, PC, Versabus, GPIB and others. Also, FYI, PT is based in East Rochester, NY -- VITA directory listings include product listings, addresses, phones, marketing contacts, etc. Standard disclaimer.
