Configure Page for: Print PDF Rich Text
  • Pair the AWK-3121 with your Ethernet NI CompactDAQ chassis to eliminate cabling from your system
  • Choose from more than 50 NI C Series hot-swappable I/O modules with integrated signal conditioning
  • Use 4 general-purpose 32-bit counter/timers built into the chassis (access through digital module)
  • Stream continuous waveform measurements with patented NI Signal Streaming technology
  • Measure in minutes with NI-DAQmx software and automatic code generation using the DAQ Assistant


For many applications, using a cabled data acquisition system is either impossible or impractical. When combined with a wireless client, Ethernet devices like the NI cDAQ-9184 and NI cDAQ-9188 chassis can stream high-speed waveforms directly to your PC.

Because of the vast number of wireless access points available, with trade-offs in price and performance, NI recommends the proven Moxa AWK-3121 access point. Extensively tested with NI hardware, the Moxa AWK-3121 is ideal for use in demanding streaming applications.

A single NI CompactDAQ Ethernet chassis can measure up to 256 channels of electrical, physical, mechanical, or acoustic signals. By combining more than 50 sensor-specific NI C Series I/O modules with patented NI Signal Streaming technology, the NI CompactDAQ platform delivers high-speed data and ease of use in a flexible, mixed-measurement system.
