Keysight Technologies M9019A Gen 3 PXIe 18-slot chassis

Keysight Technologies has announced a Gen 3 PXIe chassis and set of Gen 3 system components designed for complex, high-performance applications. The products include an 18-slot PXIe chassis with x8 Gen 3 PCIe links to each slot, a set of single- and dual-port Gen 3 PXIe system modules and PC host cards, and an improved PXIe embedded controller.

The M9019A Gen 3 PXIe 18-slot chassis provides a high-performance system platform with a number of improvements, including: a Gen 3 backplane with an x8 PCIe link to each slot and x24 (two-link) system slot; two front-panel SMB trigger ports providing access to PXI Trig (0:7); one-button power control for multichassis power sequencing for large configurations; and more power for PXIe modules.

The M9037A PXIe high-performance embedded controller is now qualified for Gen 3 PXIe backplane performance when used in the M9019A chassis. This enables system designers to fully benefit from the improved backplane speed of the chassis.
