National Instruments 782317-05 MXI-Express Cable with Communication Levels up to Gen 3 x8
The National Instruments 782317-05 is a 5-meter copper MXI-Express cabling solution engineered for high-bandwidth chassis remote control and system expansion within PXI and PXI Express platforms. Capable of supporting PCI Express protocol architectures up to Gen 3 x8, the cable is factory configured for MXI-Express Gen 2 x8 communication, providing a high-speed data pipe between host controllers, desktop PCs, or primary PXI chassis and remote expansion hardware. The 5-meter length gives test engineers the flexibility to isolate host computing resources from noisy industrial environments or spatially distribute test racks across a control room without compromising data throughput or introducing latency penalties.
Both the front-end (chassis interface) and back-end (controller interface) terminate in high-density 68-pin male MXI-Express x8 connectors. The symmetrical connector layout features gold-plated contacts for minimal signal attenuation and low contact resistance across high-speed differential pairs. Internal cabling incorporates heavy-duty copper conductors wrapped in multi-layer shielding to suppress electromagnetic interference (EMI) and cross-talk during continuous high-rate data transfers. A robust, flexible outer jacket guards against mechanical abrasion, strain, and wear from repeated flexing in dense equipment racks.
Designed for reliable operation in industrial test setups, the 782317-05 operates across an ambient temperature range of 0 °C to 50 °C (-30 °C to 70 °C storage) in indoor, environmentally controlled settings. Best practices for installation and maintenance include securing positive mechanical latch engagement before system boot, observing minimum bend radius limits to prevent internal conductor damage, avoiding proximity to high-voltage lines or localized heat sources, and powering down connected chassis endpoints prior to mating or unmating the 68-pin connectors.
