Figure 1: ADLINK Switch Module
ADLINK switch module is packaged in a Eurocard form factor compliant with 
PXI Specifications measuring 160 mm in length and 100 mm in height (not 
including connectors). A 62-pin connector is located at the front panel for wiring 
purposes and the J1/J2 IEC connectors in the rear are used to link the chassis 
backplane. With its modular, rugged, and high shock resistant mechanical 
features, the switch module functions exceptionally well in any harsh 
environment application. 
2.4 Installing the switch module into a PXI Platform
To insert the ADLINK PXI switch module, align the module’s edge with the card 
guide in the PXI chassis. Slide the switch module into the chassis, until 
resistance is felt from the PXI connector. Push the ejector upwards and fully 
insert the switch module into the chassis. Once inserted, a “click” can be heard 
from the ejector latch. Tighten the screws on the front panel.
