SCOUT featuring Direct Access

Enhanced PXI Connectivity

Need to develop a custom Direct Access Solution?

Partner with us to work cooperatively towards developing a Direct Access Solution to enhance and differentiate your PXI instrumentation.

The process is EASY, simply provide the following information:

1. Specify PXI Instrumentation List and Application Specific Information

Switching Requirements
Wiring Diagrams & Pin Out Lists
# of Terminations

2. Specify Desired DAK Features

Standard Form Factor (4")
Extended Form Factor (6")
PCB (Rigid or Flex) Connectivity
Coax Cable (Rigid or Semi-Rigid) Connectivity
Short-run, Fixed Wire Connectivity
External Connector Requirements (integrated signal monitoring)
Custom PCB (incorporate active instrumentation)
Other Application Specific Requirements

Our Applications Engineers will do the rest:

We will research all relevant PXI Instrument and connector specifications to determine if an existing DAK will suit the application requirements. If no existing DAK will suit the application, we will develop a CAD model for a new DAK design that will be thoroughly tested for desired mechanical performance. At this stage, is it possible to develop a DAK prototype that can be mounted onto the PXI Instrument and fully tested for both mechanical and electrical performance.

*Generally, there are NO NRE CHARGES associated with developing new DAK designs. For highly customized designs where a small NRE charge may apply, we are ALWAYS up front about any charges, long before they are incurred.

Prefer to develop your own custom Direct Access Solution?

We are happy to accommodate white label branding and provide everything you need to develop a custom Direct Access Solution to enhance YOUR PXI Instrumentation.
