Introduction
The ADLINK PXIS-2508 is the PXI chassis equipped with advanced features and functionalities. Compliant with PXI and Com-
pactPCI specifications, these chassis offer one system slot and seven peripheral slots for more versatile test and measurement
computing. Set in a sleek and lightweight chassis for superior portability, the PXIS-2508 also boasts of wider operating temperature
range, lower operating noise, and robust system build.
The PXIS-2508 is equipped with an intelligent control board that dynamically monitors and manages the chassis status including
the fan speed, system voltages, and internal temperature. A standard RS-232 monitoring port makes remote management possible
as chassis status are exported to and viewed from a remote computer using serial communications.
Equipped with an industrial grade 350 W AC power supply, the PXIS-2508 also come with front panel LED indicators, and easy-
access PXI slots with card guides for convenient installation and deployment. With innovative features and design, PXIS-2508 is
your best choices of PXI platform for test and measurement applications.
