National Instruments PXIe-8285 PXI Ethernet Interface Module

The National Instruments PXIe-8285 (Part number: 788510-01) is an Ethernet Interface Module designed specifically for PXI Express systems. The PXI Express module has one slot, along with two 25-gigabit ethernet SFP28 ports enabling it to reach a maximum data rate of 50 Gb/s for high performance transfer and for vision applications. The PXIe-8285 brings with it a major advantage - the capability to move data away from a PXI Express system and onto an external storage platform or server so that it can be more extensively studied. The PXIe-8285 is an excellent choice for applications that need high-bandwidth and low-latency data exchange. It allows aggregation across multiple systems, making it highly suitable for demanding tasks.

The PXI Ethernet Interface Module provides compatibility with industry-standard networks and automatic cable polarity detection, which makes it easy to integrate into your existing infrastructure. PXI can be an ideal vision application platform due to its own high-speed connection. It can easily manage up to four GigE Vision cameras without the need of Power over Ethernet (PoE).

The PXIe-8285 is built with a range of logic blocks that ensure seamless connectivity and performance. The module is connected to the PXI Express/CompactPCI Express backplane via the PCI Express connectors. It is also compatible with the NVIDIA ConnectX, an Ethernet Adapter Card that comes with two SFP28 connectors and provides 25 GbE per port. The ConnectX utilizes RoCE v2 technology to deliver low-latency and efficient RDMA over Converged Ethernet.

You can connect Mellanox-compatible active optical SFP28 or passive direct attach copper SFP28 cables to the ETH 0/1 connectors, giving you the flexibility to choose the right type of cable for your application. The PXIe-8285 is a high-performance and flexible solution that delivers fast and reliable connectivity for demanding PXI Express applications. Whether you're working with high-bandwidth data or vision applications, the PXIe-8285 is designed to meet your needs and exceed your expectations.
