The NI 190957-03 is a 3-meter MXI-4 copper cable that establishes a high-bandwidth PCI-to-PCI bridge between a host computer and PXI or CompactPCI systems. The cable delivers transparent connectivity, allowing PXI modules to operate as native PCI devices without additional software configuration. Built for reliability in electrically noisy environments, the MXI-4 implements error checking and resend mechanisms to ensure data integrity across the link.
