Switching and Data Acquisition (DAQ) Systems
The Model 3706A system switch with high performance DMM contains six slots for plug-in cards in a compact 2U high enclosure that easily accommodates the needs of medium to high channel count applications. When fully loaded, a mainframe can support up to 576 two-wire multiplexer channels for unrivaled density and economical per channel costs. The result is a tightly integrated switch and measurement solution that’s equally at home on the bench or in the rack.
