Key Features
The PXIe-1095 chassis combines a high-performance 18-slot PXI Express backplane with a
high-output power supply and a structural design that has been optimized for maximum usability
in a wide range of applications. The chassis’ modular design ensures a high level of
maintainability, resulting in a very low mean time to repair (MTTR). The PXIe-1095 chassis
fully complies with the PXI-5 PXI Express Hardware Specification, offering advanced timing
and synchronization features.
The key features of the PXIe-1095 chassis include the following:
High Performance for Instrumentation Requirements
• Up to 8 GB/s (single direction) per PXI Express slot dedicated bandwidth
(x8 Gen-3 PCI Express).
• 58 W per slot cooling meets increased PXI Express cooling requirements
• Low-jitter internal 10 MHz reference clock for PXI/PXI Express slots with ± 25 ppm
stability
• Low-jitter internal 100 MHz reference clock for PXI Express slots with ± 25 ppm stability
• Quiet operation for 0 to 30 °C at 37.7 dBA
• Variable speed fan controller optimizes cooling and acoustic emissions
• Complies with PXI and CompactPCI Specifications
