PCIe-PXIe-8638
PCI Express Control of PXI Express
Remote Controller
Introduction
The PCIe-PXIe-8638 PCI Express-to-PXI Express expansion kit
provides control of PXI Express modules installed in a PXI Express
chassis using high bandwidth PCI Express technology. The extension
kit can provide up to 4GB/s using PCIe Gen 2 x8 signaling. With
comprehensive hardware and software transparency, the expansion
kit enables fast and convenient detection of any PXI cards installed in the system, requiring no additional
drivers or software.
Controlling PXI^TM with PCI Express^®
The PCIe-PXIe-8638 PCI Express-to-PXI Express expansion kit provides additional PXI instruments slots to
the host computer by implementing a PCI Express-based control of PXI modules.The technology consists
of a PCIe-8638 host adapter installed in the host computer, a PCIe x8 cable, and a PXIe-8638, a remote
controller with the 3U (Eurocard) expansion module. The PCIe-8638 comes in a PCI Express x8 footprint
and equips with PCIe x8 cable connector.
