PXI Dual 2 Channel Fiber MUX ST
40-855-522-M
Pickering PXI Fiber Optic MEMS Switching cards are available in many high density formats with a choice of 5 different connector styles to suit most applications: FC/APC (for optimal performance), FC/PC and SC/PC for general applications and LC and MU for high density applications. Fiber optic multiplexers create a signal path by redirecting the optical signal into a selected output fiber. This is achieved using Micro-Mechanical Mirrors driven by a highly precise mechanism and activated via an electrical control signal.

LXI Scalable Matrix Chassis
65-200-001
This LXI scalable matrix chassis offers you a solution that can be easily re-configured by the insertion and removal of up to six LXI matrix plug-in modules (detail in the tables below). It is purchased as an empty chassis with a quantity of plug-in modules required for a particular matrix size. Unused chassis slots are blanked off by the supplied blanking pieces. Cooling is provided by rear fans and front air intakes ensuring no wasted space when the chassis is rack mounted. The cooling system is adaptive to its operating environment to ensure the acoustic noise is minimized when used in quiet laboratory environments and low load conditions.
