Data Sheet

The National Instruments VXI-MXI-Express remote controller for MXI-Express is a flexible, high-performance solution for stand-alone computer control of VXI systems. VXI-MXI-Express makes your computer perform as if it were plugged directly into the VXI backplane, giving your host computer the capability of an embedded computer. By using this controller with any PCI Express-based system, running Windows XP, you can choose from a wide variety of general-purpose desktop computers, laptops, or PXI host controllers. Systems equipped with this controller combine the high-bandwidth, low-latency MXI-Express interface with low-cost, general-purpose desktop computers or laptops to produce an attractive cost/performance solution compared to embedded VXI controllers.
