National Instruments MXI-3 Fiber Optic Cable

The 30-meter National Instruments MXI-3 Fiber Optic Cable (Part Number: 763427-30) is a high-performance part developed to offer a sturdy, dependable connection for PXI system remote control applications. This 30-meter fiber optic connection ensures quick and effective data transfer for crucial industrial and scientific applications by easily connecting PXI remote controllers to instruments.

By effectively dividing the bridge into two halves that interact via a 1.5 Gb/s serial link, the MXI-3 cable functions as a PCI-to-PCI bridge. With the support of this architecture, the system can continue to function as a single PCI-to-PCI bridge while maintaining total software and hardware transparency. The MXI-3 technology ensures full support for PCI bridging capabilities and compatibility with a wide range of systems by adhering to PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification version 1.0 and PCI Specification Revision 2.1.

The MXI-3 cable's fiber optic construction gives it a major advantage for remote connections, allowing high-speed data transmission over extended distances with little signal loss. Because of this, it is perfect for usage in dispersed systems where the host interface is distant from the PXI or PXI Express chassis. Because of its 30-meter length, customers can create a system with flexibility, controlling instrumentation over wide areas without sacrificing performance.

Applications requiring accurate and quick data transfer between PXI systems or multichassis setups are best suited for the MXI-3 connection. It can be applied in systems for test and measurement, industrial automation, and data collection where dependable remote control and data integrity are critical. The MXI-3 complies with windowing regulations for effective data transfer and guarantees seamless operation over multiple PCI buses by supporting the PCI-to-PCI bridge standard.
