Shipboard cabinets and consoles designed to house naval mission electronics, processing, storage, connectivity, and human/machine interfaces (displays and workstations) must protect mission systems from shock and vibration, electromagnetic interference (EMI), salt water and other ingressions, and provide security and efficient cooling for long-term reliability.

New and efficient approaches to cabinet and console design, fabrication, integration, and qualification are enabling prime defense contractors to quickly equip the U.S. Navy with better electronics technology and enclosures while increasing return on investment.

New technologies such as virtualisation, sensor improvements and data fusion are enhancing the effect of CMS on modern fleets, allowing greater range and faster transfer of critical information.

Industry standards and guidelines such as MOSA, SOSA, CMOSS, SAVE, and FACE are driving the latest developments in enclosures, chassis, and backplane databuses, as small for factors are ready to take center stage.
