The EX7300 (3U) - EX7600 (6U) are complete enclosures that include a 150 W power supply, the EX7000-OEM LXI digital interface and driver card, fans for cooling, and a removable tray for mounting components and cables. These units are intended for customers who wish to develop, build, and support their own RF/Microwave, optical, or power interface subassemblies while minimizing the time spent developing a software and communications interface. The power supply, along with the LXI Class A controller and relay driver boards are placed in the enclosure such that the RF signals passing through the box are not adversely impacted by any stray energy.

Consistent with all products within the EX7000 family, the EX7300 - EX7600 enclosures leverage off the powerful command and control options of the EX7000-OEM. A list of components used in the design can be built through "Best-In-Class" sourcing database using a web-based interface that is coupled with an extensive component library. This list can be uploaded to the custom enclosure and a JAVA-driven graphical configuration utility is then employed to programmatically emulate the schematic, while providing a "path-level" IVI driver interface and an intuitive soft front panel for easy debug and control.

A removable tray allows the enclosures to be easily "punched" for the mounting of components and cables. Additionally, 3D drawings of the cable tray can be made available for users who wish to mechanically design the custom tray and have either VTI Microwave or a machine shop fabricate the subassembly. The component tray also allows I/O connectors to be mounted on either the rear or front panels providing the flexibility to keep external cable lengths to the enclosure at a minimum, regardless of the connector orientation of the other system assets.
