PXI MUX 2 Banks of 32 Channel 1 Pole
40-610-021-2/32/1
This series of high density multiplexer modules feature a wide range of switching configurations, especially useful where a large number of small multiplexers are required. Typical applications include signal routing in ATE and data acquisition systems. Connections are made via a front panel 200-pin connector. Inter-bank linking relays allow multiplexer size to be increased in multiples of in multiples of three by joining the common terminals of adjacent banks. Closing one linking switch produces a 6-channel multiplexer, closing all linking switches produces an 54-channel multiplexer

PXI Single 2 x 2 Insert/Bypass Switch FC/APC
40-860-012
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.
