National Instruments PXIe-1085 PXI Chassis
The National Instruments NI PXIe-1085 Chassis (Part Numbers: 781813-01, 783588-01, 153869H-01, 155623F-01L) features a high-bandwidth, all-hybrid backplane to meet a variety of high-performance test and measurement application needs. There are two versions of the PXIe-1085, which differ in their bandwidth and power specifications. The maximum bandwidth for part number 781813-01 is 12 GB/s, while the maximum bandwidth for part number 783588-01 is 24 GB/s.
The hybrid connector type in every peripheral slot allows the most flexibility in terms of instrumentation module placement. It also incorporates all the features of the latest PXI specifications, including support for both PXI and PXI Express modules with a built-in 10 MHz reference clock, a PXI trigger bus, and a PXI star trigger for PXI modules. There is also a built-in 100 MHz reference clock, Pxie_SYNC100, and PXI differential star trigger for PXI Express modules.
The high-performance PXIe-1085 Chassis has 16 hybrid slots and 1 PXI Express system timing slot. Depending on the part number, it offers up to 4 GB/s or up to 8 GB/s per-slot dedicated bandwidth for all slots. It is compatible with PXI, PXI Express, CompactPCI, and CompactPCI Express modules. The device operates on software provided by the PXI Platform Services 3.0 (or higher versions) software media, and can be configured using the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool. Also, it is equipped with 2 SMA connectors. The PXI chassis weighs 40.3 lb and has the dimensions: 6.97 x 18.30 x 19.38 inches.
The NI PXIe-1085 Chassis has a remote power-inhibit control and variable speed fan controller to optimize cooling and acoustic emissions. Its 38.25 W per slot cooling meets increased PXIe cooling requirements. The device has a low-jitter internal 10 MHz reference clock for PXI/PXI Express slots with ± 25 ppm stability, and a low-jitter internal 100 MHz reference clock for PXI Express slots with ± 25 ppm stability. The NI PXIe-1085 is AC powered and its power, temperature, and fan monitoring features are highly reliable. This model additionally has quiet operation for 0 to 30 °C at 51.2 dBA.
The PXIe-1085 has been declared Mature by the manufacturer National Instruments and has a "Last Time Buy Date" of January 31, 2026. However, Apex Waves will continue to have the Chassis available for both purchase and repair services in perpetuity! Request a quote today.
