PXI chassis with elevated power and cooling

15 November 2017 Test & Measurement

National Instruments announced the PXIe-1095 chassis, the industry’s first PXI chassis with 58 W of dedicated power and cooling per slot. This represents a 50% increase in power and cooling per slot compared to previously released NI PXI Express chassis. In addition to higher power, the new chassis also features a significant reduction in fan noise in its 38 W cooling profile mode, delivering a 13 dB improvement compared to the previously released PXIe-1085 chassis and making it NI’s quietest PXI Express chassis.

In addition to providing higher power and lower fan noise, the 18-slot chassis offers two hot-swappable, redundant 1200 W power supplies for high-availability applications. Using PCI Express Gen 3 technology, the new chassis features 24 GBps of system bandwidth for high-throughput peer-to-peer or peer-to-disk data transfer applications. Furthermore, the chassis offers an optional timing and synchronisation upgrade that includes a built-in OCXO for increased clock accuracy and external clock and trigger routing. Finally, like all NI PXI Chassis, the PXIe-1095 includes software resources for monitoring system health data such as temperature and fan speed.
