The NI BNC-2081 is an analog breakout board that expands signal connectivity between National Instruments DAQ devices and laboratory test equipment. It provides 24 BNC connectors for streamlined analog and digital signal routing, supporting up to 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input channels. Two 50-pin connectors enable user-defined I/O expansion. The board includes silkscreened component pads for passive signal conditioning—voltage dividers, single-pole low-pass filters, and high-pass filters—without requiring external modifications. Dimensions are 7.9 × 4.9 × 1.725 inches.
