PXI Fault Insertion Insertion Switch Modules 
- Choice of Channel Counts and Switch Configurations
- Solid State Relay Versions for Current Handling up to 40 Amps
- Kernel, VISA and IVI Support For PXI Environments & Kernel and IVI Support For LXI Environments
-
Select modules are supported by our eBIRST Switching System Test Tools, these tools provide a quick and simple way of finding relay failures within LXI, PCI and PXI switch systems.
- Single signal paths with series switches and switches to connect to one or more fault buses
- Pairs of signals with series switches, shorting switches between the signal pairs and switches to connect either signal
to an external fault input.

We also offer mating cables and connectors for these modules to ensure speedy and successful system integration. We stand behind our products with a three-year warranty.
