Description
The 778226-01 is a specialized GPIB component designed for applications requiring combined Ethernet and GPIB interfaces. Known by its model number, PXI-8212, it offers a unique solution for systems needing to interface with GPIB devices over a network.
This component is particularly notable for its compatibility with NI-488.2 for Win2000/XP/ME/98, making it a versatile option for a range of operating systems prevalent in legacy and specific use case scenarios. The PXI-8212 supports both IEEE 488 and Ethernet interfaces, adhering to the IEEE 488.1 and 488.2 standards for GPIB, and it supports 10BaseT, 100BaseTX, and IEEE 803.2u standards for Ethernet connections.
With a maximum data transfer rate of 8 Mbytes/s, this device ensures efficient communication between connected systems. Power requirements are modest, with a maximum of 2A at +5 VDC, translating to about 10 Watts of power consumption. The physical connectivity options include an IEEE 488 (24-bit) connector and an RJ-45 Ethernet port, offering flexibility in connection methods.
The PXI-8212 is designed to fit in a 3U space, with dimensions of 16.0 x 10.0 cm and a weight of 140 g. It is compatible with PXI, CompactPCI, and PICMG 2.0 standards, ensuring it can be integrated into a wide range of systems. Despite being marked as obsolete, it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, providing continued support for systems relying on this specific model.
