NI PXI 2565 Cable Definition / PCB Definition Support

[akonecki]

Hi,

I currently have a NI PXI-2565 relay switch and was wondering what the best / recommend methods for connecting to this device with respect to the chasis and at a PCB.  I am interested in what the mating connectors should be for a straight through cable and mounting fixture.

Thanks,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I assume you've already looked at this:

Are you making your own custom cable and just looking for cable suggestions?

Best,

Ryan

Yes I have looked at that for the mating side of the PXI.  I am trying to define the best cable and interface mating scheme on the UUT side as well and typically just use the same mating on the NI PXI cards but have not had luck finding the part number for the 2565 yet.

I might just put some post connections down, but it will look ugly and be really messy to connect up.

Andrew,

I'm not sure if you're looking for something like these:

There should be multiple ways you can do this depending on how willing you are to using a breakout board.

Thanks,

Ah that helps considerably.  Wish the connection / cable selection was more complete but sure more will be added as time progresses.

Thanks
