The LXI Consortium said that the Agilent N5700, N6700 modular power supplies and the 60-100 Modular Switching Chassis from Pickering Interfaces are the world's first certified LXI products. The LXI Board officially approved the Conformance Committee's recommendation to license the LXI logo to these products.
Bob Rennard, president, LXI Consortium, said, ˇ°They are the first products in the world approved to carry the LXI logo. This represents a tremendous amount of work and achievement by the member companies. We just finished our third Plugfest on November 29-30 where we saw again the momentum building for this LXI. These products promise to be the beginning of a very broad multi-company line-up of LXI products. "
Scott Sampl, vice president and general manager, Agilent's System Products Division, stated, "We are very pleased to have made it to this recognition point, so fast. Agilent is committed to delivering products that meet the LXI standard. LXI is the future of test it enables fast, efficient, and cost-effective creation of test systems for world wide deployment."
David Owen, business development manager for Pickering Interfaces, noted, ˇ°New standards can be difficult to get going quickly. The 60-100 Modular switching chassis provides the critical mass for LXI switching applications. It allows users to choose the best control interface for the application from a wide range of modules. We're excited to be the first for LXI with this product."
