Keysight PXIe System and Cable Interface Installation Guide

Using Different PXIe Chassis

Using Different PXIe Chassis

The M9021A card interface module only works the Gen 2 PXIe M9018A or 

M9018B chassis. When using the M9021A with the M9018, use the chassis 

PCIe 

Switch Fabric Configurator

 

to set the chassis switch fabric to 1x8.

To use the M9022A, M9023A, or M9024A system modules with the M9018 

chassis, use the chassis 

PCIe Switch Fabric Configurator

 

to set the chassis 

switch fabric to 2x8.
The link configuration for the Gen 3-capable M9010A and M9019A chassis is 

fixed, so there is no need to configure the chassis switch fabric when using the 

M9022A, M9023A, or M9024A system modules.

General Installation Considerations

The following table shows which PXIe chassis slots the System Modules or 

M9021A Cable Interface module may be installed in:
