AXIe Chassis and ModulesIntroductionKeysight Y1299A-003 MAC Reference Solution Startup Guide 21AXIe Chassis and ModulesIntroductionThe Keysight M9502A (2-slot) and M9505A (5-slot) AXIe chassis are modularinstrument chassis fully compatible with the AXIe 1.0 specification. They allowmultiple application-specific instrument modules to share a common chassis frame,power supply, cooling system, PCI Express (PCIe) Gen 2 data bus, Gigabit LAN hub,local bus for module-to-module signaling, and host PC connections. Multiple chassismay be interconnected for scalability, a feature Keysight calls MultiFrame. The fullrack chassis provides two or five general purpose peripheral slots that accept 1U AXIeinstrument modules. Each module slot has a Gen 2 x4 link (maximum of 2 GB/s datarate per module) to the chassis primary data ‘fabric’ hub—a x8 PCIe switch and databus.M9502A 2-Slot AXIe Chassis at a GlanceDesigned for portable or small system testing, the M9502A is shipped with bumpersand a carry handle installed for benchtop use (these remove for rack mounting), Slot 1open and a filler panel module installed in Slot 2.
