Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE:A) recently
announced the Agilent E5810B LAN/GPIB/USB gateway, the next-generation
replacement for the E5810A with added USB capability. The new gateway allows
users to connect and control, over a standard local-area network, up to 14 GPIB
instruments, up to four USB instruments via a self-powered hub, and an RS-232
instrument.
With the gateway's improved GPIB
transfer rate of 1.2 MB/s, engineers can reduce test time and improve
production. The E5810B supports 1000BASE-T (1 Gigabit) LAN/Ethernet as well as
100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T to meet the demands of higher network bandwidth.
Designed for ease of use, the E5810B
comes with a built-in LCD display, allowing users to check the IP address of
the gateway for quick setup. Users can easily configure the gateway via a
password-protected Web interface.
The E5810B allows multiple users in
different locations to access a centrally located test system. Connecting a
wireless router to the E5810B enables engineers to wirelessly control
instruments from a PC where LAN connection is unavailable or inconvenient.
"With this fast, efficient
one-box connectivity solution, engineers can effortlessly control a broad range
of instruments simultaneously over standard LANs," said Ee Huei Sin, vice
president, Agilent's Basic Instruments Division. "The E5810B's versatility
makes it ideal for system integrations, shared test systems in R&D, design
verification and manufacturing environments."
