2Safety Information
Before using the SwitchPXIe module, ensure that the following safety information had been
read and understood.
WARNING
•Do not install or terminate fibers while a light source is active. Care
must be taken to ensure that the instrument has been turned OFF
before inspecting the end face(s) of the instrument, or any optical
patch cords connected to this instrument. Never look directly into
a live fiber; ensure that your eyes are protected at all times.
•The use of controls, adjustments and procedures other than those
specified herein may result in exposure to hazardous situations or
impair the protection provided by this unit.
CAUTION
The SwitchPXIe modules are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Store the modules that are not installed in protective electrostatic
packaging.
IMPORTANT
•For electromagnetic compatibility, this instrument is a Class A
product. It is intended for use in an industrial environment. There
may be potential difficulties in ensuring electromagnetic
compatibility in other environments, due to conducted as well as
radiated disturbances.
•Wherever the symbol is printed on the unit, refer to the
instructions provided in the device documentation for related
safety information Ensure that the required conditions are met and
understood before using the product.

3Introducing the SwitchPXIe –Optical Switch Module
The SwitchPXIe is an efficient solution for test procedure automation designed to be used on
the National Instruments PXIe platform. The MEMS based optical switch ensures repeatable
and low-loss switching to various test set-ups while taking advantage of the PXIe mainframe’s
flexible connectivity and high channel density form-factor.
This manual applies to SwitchPXIe-1000/1100/1400 Series.
