# PXES-2596 # 9/12 Slot All Hybrid 3U PXIe Chassis # ATX powered with 16 GB/s System Bandwidth Capability # Features • Entry level platform provides an ideal balance between performance and price point • A simple structure consisting only of the backplane and ATX PSU, making it more user friendly for single board buyers Intelligent chassis management with automatic fan speed control and t emperature/power status monitoring • System bandwidth up t o 16 GB/S & peripheral band width up to 4 GB/s for all slots ![Front view of a multi-chamber industrial control module (no visible text or symbols on the main body)](.pxes-2596-datasheet-20260126/3c608753c7c6724373b975351286334249d22cd2fb184ee71e044fa023049fd0.jpg) # Introduction The ADLINK PXES-2596 is a 9 slot PXI Express all hybrid chassis . It features 1 system slot, and 8 hybrid slots , supporting CompactPCI, PXI, and PXI Express modules for maximum flexibility. Built on a two link PXI Express architecture with 16GB/s system bandwidth, all peripheral slots support PCIe Gen3 x4 , providing up to 4 GB/s per slot. For expanded configuration, a 12 slot version called PXES-2596E is also available, featuring 1 system slot, 8 hybrid slots, and 3 additional PXI Express peripheral slots. This provides greater slot density and price performance ratio. Additionally, both version supports single board sales and features an ATX power design without a power board, simplifying integration and making it easier for single board customers to use. The chassis integrates a smart monitoring system that reports fan speed, system voltages, and internal temperature in real time. The new fan curve design enables the PXES-2596 to effectively handle Gen3 heat dissipation while delivering up to 58W of cooling capacity per slot. # Ordering Information # • PXES-2596 9 Slot All Hybrid 3U PXI Express Chassis with up to 16GB/s System Bandwidth and ATX Power Supply • Xebp 2596 (Single board only) • Xebp 2596E (Single board only) # • PXES-2596E 12 Slot version (w/ remote extension or one slot controller) # Accessories # • Rack Mount Kit Flexible rack mount kit for PXES-2596 • 500W ATX PSU (For single board) • I/O Cables (For single board) # Specifications # Power Supply # • AC Input • Input voltage range: 100 to 240 VAC • Input voltage frequency: 47 to 63Hz # • DC Output Maximum 500 W total usable power
