Interface; Hybrid Peripheral Slots; Pxi Express Peripheral Slots - Keysight M9005A User Manual

Getting Started

Interface

The M9005A chassis has a built-in x1 interface that can be accessed through the
chassis controller connector on the back of the chassis, as shown in
The interface can be cabled to a remote system with a host card using a x1 cable
to provide control of the M9005A chassis. Keysight offers two options:
- M9005A-001—PCIe Express Card Adapter for M9005A with 3 m cable.
- M9005A-002—PCIe Desktop Adapter for M9005A with 3 m cable.

Hybrid Peripheral Slots

The chassis provides three (3) hybrid peripheral slots (slot numbers 4–6) as
defined in the PXI-5 PXI Express Hardware Specification. These hybrid peripheral
slots can accept the following peripheral modules:
- A PXI Express Peripheral with a x1 PCI Express link through the PCI Express
- A CompactPCI Express Type-2 Peripheral with a x1 PCI Express link through a
- A hybrid-compatible PXI Peripheral module that has been modified by
- A CompactPCI 32-bit peripheral on the backplane's 32-bit PCI bus.
The hybrid peripheral slots provide full PXI Express functionality and 32-bit PXI
functionality except for PXI Local Bus. The hybrid peripheral slot only connects to
PXI Local Bus 6 left and right.

PXI Express Peripheral Slots

There are two (2) PXI Express peripheral slots: slots 2 and 3. PXI Express
peripheral slots can accept the following modules:
- A PXI Express Peripheral with a x1 PCI Express link through the
- A CompactPCI Express Type-2 Peripheral with a x1 PCI Express link through a
