Description
The GPIB-130 is a GPIB Bus Extender designed to extend the cable length and device loading beyond IEEE 488 standard limits. It supports a wide range of part numbers including 776526-01, 776526-02, 776526-03, 776526-04, 776526-05, and 776526-06, making it a versatile option for various setups.
Falling under the GPIB category, this model boasts compatibility with both IEEE 488.1 and 488.2 standards. It is capable of extending the maximum cable distance to up to 300 meters, while also supporting the connection of up to 28 GPIB devices. This significantly enhances the flexibility and scalability of GPIB networks.
For transmission cables, the GPIB-130 utilizes CL2-rated T2 cable for distances ranging from 50 meters to 300 meters, and T5 cable for distances up to 50 meters. It ensures a high transfer rate of more than 900 kbytes per second, facilitating rapid data communication across connected devices.
The physical dimensions of the GPIB-130 are 3.75 x 3.0 x 0.95 inches, featuring a case made from 0.050 in THK 5052-H32 Aluminum. It operates within a temperature range of 0 to 55 ºC and can withstand a relative humidity range of 5% to 95%, noncondensing. The device’s power consumption is typically 2.2 W, and it can be powered through an external 5 V regulated source or an NI GPIB interface board.
Despite being declared obsolete by National Instruments, the GPIB-130 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. Its enduring availability ensures that users can continue to benefit from its functionality in extending GPIB networks.
