Modular Systems

Route Multiple Channels to a Single Point

The M9101A, a high-density, 64-channel PXI multiplexer routes many different channels to a single point. The switches operate in a break-before-make mode that ensures no two points are connected at the same time or, if needed multiple channels can connect simultaneously. Ideal for routing multiple analog signals to a measurement device in automated test environment (ATE) or data acquisition systems. Each channel switches a high and a low for 2-wire switching up to 100Vrms, with up to 10W of power. Connection options include the durable connector block or the standard cable connections.
