Low-Density PXI Switch Matrix Modules

Cost-effective switch matrix modules for applications that require relatively small matrices in the PXI format.

  • Up to 96 relays per module
  • 1-pole, 2-pole and 1-pole screened configurations
  • Ruthenium reed and electro-mechanical relay versions 
  • Switch up to 300Volts, 2A with 90W max power
  • High-density front panel connectors
  • Kernel, VISA and IVI support for PXI environments and 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.
Cost Effective Switching Solution

Our low-density PXI switch matrix modules are a cost-effective solution for applications that require relatively small matrices in the PXI format. These low-density switch matrices can be expanded by connecting together multiple modules, however, we recommend that users look at the higher density switch matrix modules that involve less user configuration.

Reed relay versions use high quality sputtered ruthenium relays that exhibit excellent contact performance under low and medium level switching conditions. For general purpose applications that also require higher power handling, the range of electro-mechanical relays provides an ideal solution.

We also offer mating cables and connectors for these modules to ensure speedy and successful system integration.
