The Virginia Panel Corporation’s Gemini family of mass interconnect products allows rapid connectivity of PXI test instrumentation to devices under test. These adaptable, modular connectors integrate signal, coaxial, power, fibre-optic, pneumatic/vacuum, and thermocouple contacts in virtually unlimited configurations. With a receiver interface consolidating instrument connections, Gemini offers plug-and-play setup in a standardized platform that eliminates repeated wiring and protects instrument connections. Cable assemblies for instrument cards incorporate modules designed for over 20,000 mating cycles to withstand typical test environments. Mounting options include hinged frames for rack-and-stack configurations as well as chassis mounting flanges for portable applications. The receiver interface allows for rapid connection to the DUT, enabling rapid changeover and eliminating rewiring and troubleshooting. Being configured for each DUT allows users to take full advantage of a standard platform. The interface accepts a variety of fixture options and enclosures. Gemini systems are available in 2, 6, 10, and 18-module configurations to meet any PXI-chassis size requirement. The 18-module unit is able to simultaneously connect as many as 4380 contacts. The 2, 6 and 10-modules feature a two-piece, EMI-shielded enclosure with adjustable cable clamps for various sized wire bundles that slides open for easy access to modules and contacts.
