Adlink had a range of new products at Boston ESC like the NuPRO-965, a PICMG 1.3 compatible motherboard, and the sleek PXIS-2558T 3U 8-Slot Smart PXI Chassis. The NuPRO-965 supports dual and quadcore Intel Core2 processors. The full length card runs DDR-2 RAM up to 8 Gbytes. It has dual Gigabit Etherenet and SATA-II interfaces. For legacy and optical storage there is an IDE interface. Off board connections include an x16 PCI Express interface and four x1 interfaces. The PXIS-2558T uses a PCI interface to support PXI cards. It has an 8.4-in 800 by 600 pixel LCD touch panel. The 8-slot PXI chassis is compliant with the PXI Specification Rev. 2.2 with intelligent chassis management support. One slot is for a system card. The others can handle PXI/CompactPCI peripheral cards. It has a 350W industrial-grade AC power supply. Related Links Adlink
