Agilent Technologies E8408A VXI Mainframe Analyzer

Agilent Technologies E8408A VXI Mainframe is a C-size, four-slot VXI mainframe designed to host up to four VXI modules in a single chassis. It delivers 175 watts of usable power and uses quiet, efficient cooling, with onboard mainframe monitoring for power and temperature status. Built to the VXIbus standard, the E8408A provides backplane connectivity for installed modules and supports standard module management in a 4-slot configuration. As an older model, it is considered obsolete but remains common in legacy test systems; many units are described as shipping with VXI modules already installed in the mainframe. Originally offered by Agilent Technologies, the E8408A is now carried by Keysight Technologies under the historic designation, preserving the same form factor and core capabilities while reflecting the brand transition.
