PXIe chassis options span range of application requirements
Also in Keysight Technology’s product release is a PXIe 5-slot chassis for low-cost desktop and portable applications; and a PXIe 18-slot chassis for large system applications, with cost-effective Gen 2 performance, and improved power supply and system integration features.
Optimized for module cooling and high-performance, the Gen 3 M9010A 10-slot chassis delivers leading sound power levels combined with high levels of per-slot cooling to meet the demands of high-performance PXIe modules. The 10-slot chassis provides a superior platform for small channel-count R&D applications, while the previously introduced Gen 3 M9019A 18-slot chassis enables test of multi-channel, high-performance manufacturing applications, such as MIMO and PA/FEM. When used with Keysight’s PXIe high-performance system modules and PC host adapters, the Gen 3 PXI chassis enable up to 16 GB/sec system bandwidth to an external PC.
M9010A Gen 3 PXIe 10-slot chassis features include:
All hybrid, Gen 3 backplane with an x8 PCIe link to each slot and x24 (two-link) system slot
Ultra-quiet, high capacity cooling system
Two front panel SMB trigger ports providing access to PXI Trig (0:7)
One-button power control for multi-chassis power sequencing for large configurations
High power capability for high-performance PXIe modules
The M9005A PXIe 5-slot chassis is suited for small, low-cost applications such as low-channel count VNA systems. The M9005A provides:
An integrated system module with a x1 cable interface to an external PC
Three hybrid and two PXIe slots
Gen 1, x1 backplane performance
The M9018B Gen 2 PXIe 18-slot chassis is a cost-effective platform to build large systems when Gen 3 performance is not required. The M9018B is an updated version of the M9018A and provides:
All hybrid, Gen 2 backplane with a mix of x4 and x8 links to each slot
High-performance cooling system
Two front panel SMB trigger ports providing access to PXI Trig (0:7)
One-button power control for multi-chassis power sequencing for large configurations
New power supply to provide more power for next generation PXIe modules
