Description
The 181460-01B National Instruments GPIB-130 GPIB Extender enables users to extend cable length and device loading restrictions of the IEEE 488 standard, allowing for connection of up to 28 devices on a single GPIB system. This device is compatible with both IEEE 488.1 and 488.2 standards, achieving transfer rates of over 900 kbytes per second, and is now available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves despite being declared obsolete by National Instruments.
181460-01B National Instruments GPIB-130 GPIB Extender is a device used to extend the cable length and device loading restrictions defined in the IEEE 488 standard. It allows users to go beyond the 20 meter limit and connect up to 28 devices on a single GPIB system. The GPIB-130 translates GPIB messages into parallel or serial signals, allowing for the construction of an extended GPIB network. This device is compatible with both IEEE 488.1 and 488.2 standards and is software transparent, meaning no modifications to existing programs or hardware infrastructure are required. With a specially designed transfer technique, the GPIB-130 can achieve transfer rates of over 900 kbytes per second. The device measures 3.75 x 3.0 x 0.95 inches and is constructed of 5052-H32 Aluminum, with a recommended operating temperature range of 0 to 55 degrees Celsius. The GPIB-130 can be powered using either an external 5V regulated power supply or a NI GPIB interface board. While the GPIB-130 has been declared obsolete by National Instruments, it will still be available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves.
