PXI Solid State Multiplexer, Single 6-Channel, 30 Amp
40-667B-012
The 40-667B-012 is a single 6-channel 30A MUX and is part of our range of high current multiplexers occupying two slots of PXI chassis. Each multiplexer switch uses a fully isolated solid state relay which has been designed to offer fast operation under hot switching conditions and high inrush current with no operational life degradation. Each multiplexer channel can support 10A of continuous current and switch up to 200V signals. The switches can sustain inrush currents in excess of 50A. AC or DC signals can be switched since the switch is polarity insensitive.

78 Pin D-type Connector & Cable Accessories
The Standard Voltage 78 Pin D-Type connector is used on PXI and LXI switching products to provide a medium density user connector solution. If you would like to develop your own cabling solutions, we offer mating connectors and connector hoods that allow you to create either your own cable based solutions, or a PCB header solution. Connector Blocks directly terminate the module connector and convert the connection to arrays of screw terminal blocks, or you can select to use a remote DIN rail mounted breakout to terminate the cables at the end of a cable assembly. You can also try our Cable Design Tool to graphically design a customized cable assembly.
