Hi,
I planned to add another 4472B to the existing PXI chassis but noticed that PXIe 4492 is recommended to replace 4472B. I am wondering if PXIe 4492 would work in a PXI chassis (PXI-1056).
Thanks!

The PXI and PXIe have different connectors. So the short answer is "no". If you had a PXI chassis with hybrid slots, either PXI or PXIe cards could go in those slots.

Does National Instruments have any plans for developing a replacement/upgrade for the PXI-1056 Chassis with a PXI Express compatiable slots?

Hi James,
The PXIe 1065 has 9 PXI slots, 4 hybrid slots and 3 PXIe slots:

So this chassis has the capability to handle many PXI and PXIe cards simultaneously.

Mason,
Thanks for the response.....
I was interested in the 6U card capability of the PXI-1056 and the 4U height of the chassis, but would like PXIe compatibility for some of the slots and controller.
