National Instruments 778643-02 Rear Rack-Mount Kit
The NI 778643-02 Rear Rack-Mount Kit provides a secure way to mount your NI PXI-1042 8-Slot Chassis into a 19" equipment rack. It is designed as a rear-access mounting solution to automate test equipment installation and deployment. This rear-rack-mount kit has been engineered to provide easy access to module connectors, I/O ports, and other back-panel-mounted components of your PXI test system while ensuring maximum air flow and cable management for high-density PXI configurations.
The NI 778643-02 Rear-Rack Mount Kit is supplied with the required mounting brackets and hardware to install the PXI-1042 chassis onto the rear rail of a typical 19" equipment rack. Using this rear-mounting technique allows you to retain the valuable front panel space on your rackmount enclosure for displays or additional instruments while still having ready access to all module connectors and I/O ports at the rear. Additionally, this rear-mounting method can greatly enhance ease of use when maintaining your PXI modules. In automated test environments, it's common to make changes to cabling and/or signal routings or perform regular maintenance operations such as swapping out PXI modules. With the NI 778643-02 rear-rack mounting kit, these chores are eliminated since you no longer have to remove the chassis from its rack location each time.
Used primarily in laboratory applications, factory floor testing, and data collection applications, the NI 778643-02 rear-rack mount kit represents a reliable base for installing a PXI chassis into either permanent or semi-permanent rack configurations. This accessory is a highly effective way to increase the overall reliability of your PXI-based test system due to its ability to rigidly anchor the chassis to the rack, reducing potential sources of vibration and mechanical stress, which could ultimately cause measurement errors.
