National Instruments 783329-30 MXI-Express Cable
The National Instruments 783329-30 is a high-bandwidth, 30-meter fiber-optic MXI-Express cabling solution engineered for remote chassis control and multi-chassis expansion within PXI Express systems. Capable of supporting PCI Express signal protocols up to Gen 3 x8, the cable is factory configured for MXI-Express Gen 2 x8 communication, enabling sustained high-speed data transfer between a host PC/controller and target PXI or PXI Express chassis. By utilizing advanced fiber-optic glass conductors, the 30 m assembly isolates high-speed PCIe differential signals from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ground loops over long distances, making it ideal for distributed test, hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation, and noisy industrial data acquisition setups.
Mechanical construction features high-density 68-pin male MXI-Express x8 connectors at both ends, equipped with gold-plated pin contacts for low contact resistance and long-term signal integrity. The heavy-duty connector housings include integrated strain relief boots to protect delicate internal optical fibers during installation, keyed alignment geometry to prevent incorrect insertion orientation, and shielded backshells to maintain complete electrical shielding across the host-chassis interface. Standard labeling clearly designates host-side and chassis-side terminal orientation for straightforward system integration and system slot expansion.
Weighing 1.15 kg including both connector assemblies, the 783329-30 operates across a standard environmental temperature range of 0 °C to 55 °C (-20 °C to 70 °C storage) with a relative humidity tolerance of 10% to 90% non-condensing. To ensure long-term optical efficiency, the assembly requires adherence to standard fiber handling procedures, including maintaining minimum dynamic bend radius guidelines, keeping protective dust caps installed when disconnected, and cleaning connector end-faces prior to fully seating host and chassis ports.
