Multiple communications ports distinguish PXI
controllers.
Two new 3U PXI controllers, the PXI-3920 based on the Intel
Pentium[R] M 760 and the PXI-3910 that uses Intel's Celeron[R] M
760, incorporate dual Gigabit Ethernet ports. They also support
instrument control through various interfaces including LXI, GPIB, USB,
and serial. One Ethernet port can be connected to the LAN and the other
used to provide deterministic bandwidth and latency for LXI test
instrument control.

The controllers have a GPIB port, four USB 2.0 ports, and two
serial ports. Mechanically, the units feature onboard soldered CPU and
memory chips, a solid-state disk drive, and cable-free construction to
withstand 6-Grms vibration in harsh environments such as vehicle and
avionic applications. ADLINK Technology, www.rsleads.com/804ee-195
