I have an upcoming requirement for connecting two test equipment racks so that one contains a control computer and PXI chassis and the second rack contains another PXI chassis. The control computer will include a two-port MXI Master PXIe card, and each PXI chassis an MXI Slave card.

The problem arises that there is no means to bring out an MXI cable from one rack to the other, except through a hole, rather than a proper feed-through connector.

I can design and build a back-to-back pair of MXI matching Molex connectors on a small PCB, but a qualified, tested, and approved OEM solution would be much better.

We have 50+ PXI(e) systems running on our network and there are many computers (25+) that have NIMAX view the PXI(e)'s to see if systems are online and how they are operating.  Rather then have each computer enter in each PXI(e) system via the IP (which can get very repetitive), is it possible a file could be produced from one computer and shared across all computers, to make entry of all PXI(e)'s much easier?
