OverviewThe PXE21100 is a 4U, 19in PXIe chassis with 21 PXIe Gen4 slots designed for high-density, high-bandwidth measurement systems. It supports Tabor Proteus AWGs, TE3xxx PXIe RF amplifiers and other PXIe-compliant modules. The chassis includes a standard embedded Intel i5-13500E controller with a 128GB SSD, DisplayPort, USB interfaces, USB-C and 2.5Gb Ethernet. The embedded PC can be upgraded to i9-13900E, up to 256GB RAM and up to 960GB SSD.
Key Highlights- 21 PXIe slots in a 19in 4U form factor to maximize rack density
- PCIe Gen4 backplane for maximum data throughput between modules
- Embedded controller: i5-13500E standard; upgradeable to i9-13900E
- Multi-chassis synchronization via PXE21106 Mesh controller for phase-coherent systems
- Smart fan control and chassis status monitoring for reliable operation
- High-speed connectivity: 2.5GbE, rear RJ45, 3 x USB 2.0 Type A, 1 x USB 3.2 Gen1 Type A
Features- Form factor: 4U, 19in — 438.8 mm x 176.0 mm x 449.5 mm
- Embedded controller: Intel i5-13500E (standard); RAM 16GB (upgradeable to 256GB); SSD 128GB (upgradeable to 960GB)
- Backplane: PCIe Gen4, 21 usable PXIe slots
- Scale to multiple chassis: connect and synchronize multiple chassis; PXE21106 synchronizes up to 6 chassis — use multiple units for larger systems
