What cable to use to direct connect two PXIe-6537?

[kmcdevitt]

Is there a NI cable that can be used to connect two PXIe-6537 cards?

Hi,

You cannot directly connect two PXIe-6537 cards using a standard straight through cable. However, you could connect the lines in the cards using a connector block or using two LVDS flying lead cables. I hope this is helpful,

Hi,

Why do you want to cable two 6537's together?  You can cable two together with this cable. If you need to cross over PFI4 and PFI5 because you want to transfer data w/ one of the high speed clocked modes, you cannot.  If you're willing, you can perform surgery on the cable to cross over PFI4 and PFI5.
