Product Description

A 3U (5.25” high), chassis which comes with a LAN and IEEE-488 interface with a built-in Resource Manager.  It has eight slots which will support any of Giga-tronics ASCOR line of 4000 series switch modules. There are a wide variety of switch modules from DC to 40 GHz and power switching up to 20 AMPS .

  • 6U Form Factor – the larger 6U form factor will accommodate 3-4 times the number of relays as 3U PXI products eliminating the need to build switching structures across boards decreasing Bandwidth.
  • Analog Signal Bus – Allows Switching cards to be connected together  to create larger high Performance Switching structures without using external cabling.  The backplane provides a 32 channel Analog signal bus (16 Channel Differential) rated at over 500MHz.
