VXI Switching
The Aerospace and Defense industries were early adopters of modular test platforms. One of the first successes was VXI test systems and VXI switching. They served these industries very well for more than 20 years. Now, as VXI test systems become obsolete, test systems developers are looking to PXI as the next generation modular test platform for their industries. We offer a few different references to help you in making a switch to PXI.
