The National Instruments 782568-01 is a high-performance PC-based controller optimized for managing PXI chassis in remote control environments. Also designated as the RMC-8355, this 1U controller incorporates dual Intel Xeon E5620 quad-core processors, delivering a base clock speed of 2.4 GHz and a turbo frequency of up to 2.66 GHz, enabling it to efficiently tackle complex computational tasks. Designed for maximum reliability, it supports up to 96 GB of RDIMM ECC memory per processor through its 12 DIMM slots, ensuring stability even under heavy memory load.

Featuring SATA-based hardware RAID support, this model accommodates RAID configurations 0, 1, and 5, enhancing both data redundancy and read/write performance. It supports configurations with SSD or HDD with a maximum storage capacity of 1 TB. The 782568-01's rugged form factor is tailored for integration into rack-mounted environments, and its dual-socket setup optimizes processing capacity.

Connectivity options are extensive, with a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot, an x8 slot, four USB 2.0 ports, two SATA ports, and dual RJ45 LAN jacks offered for device integration and data transfer. The onboard VGA port, supported by the Matrox G200eW graphics controller, enables video output at resolutions up to 1280 x 1024. Built for performance and durability, this controller operates in a temperature range of 0 °C to 50 °C for single processor configurations and 0 °C to 45 °C for dual processors. It accepts an AC input of 100 to 240 VAC with a maximum power rating of 480 W, ensuring efficient performance without compromising on operational reliability. Compliance with IEC 68-2-27 standards for shock and vibration testing further underscores its robustness in demanding environments. The device weighs 8.1 kg (17.8 lbs) and measures 432 mm x 533 mm (17 in. x 21 in.), and is backed by a warranty period of 2 to 3 years.
