These configurations are not supported, even though the front panel MXI connectors are mechanically compatible.
For these configurations the boards will likely report a valid cable link via the front panels LEDs. Since these link
scenarios expose a possible data integrity issue that may not be obvious to the user, National Instruments strongly
recommends against using these configurations.
** Daisy-chaining from PXI Express or ExpressCard slots will give better throughput and latency performance than
PXI or PXI Express hybrid slots.
‡ ExpressCard slot of an NI embedded controller that is installed in the first chassis.
