PCIe-8364 Overview

The PCIe-8364 MXI-Express x1 functions as a two-port cabled PCI Express x1 link that enables control of devices installed in a PXI, PXI Express, VXI, or CompactRIO chassis through the use of desktop computers, workstations, laptops or any other host controller with a PCI, PCI Express, or ExpressCard slot.

The PCIe-8364 provides the following functionalities:

  • Control a PXI/PXI Express/CompactPCI/CompactPCI Express, CompactRIO, or VXI backplane with a PCI, PCI Express, or ExpressCard-based PC or laptop/mobile host adapter.
  • Physically separate the measurement or automation system from a host PC or laptop.
  • Combine PCI Express, CompactPCI, CompactPCI Express, PXI, PXI Express, and CompactRIO devices into the same system.
