To interface with your system, you will need to design and build cables customized for your application. This will require the unique pinout map for your configuration. The pinout map should have been provided to you during the sales process. If you do not have it please contact us for more information.
Sensor Interface Units & Nano Interface Units - Each of NAI's Sensor Interface Units (SIUs) require mating connectors to interface with the product. This table shows the proper mating connectors with part numbers for the NIU1A, NIU2A, NIU3A, SIU31, SIU33, SIU34, SIU35 and SIU36. If your system is not listed or if you require more detail about the connector, please reference the specific hardware manual for your product. NAI provides a front panel mating connector kit for our SIUs. If you would like an explanation of what is inside the kit, please contact us.

Convection-Cooled Cards - If you are using a convection-cooled card, male connector pins from Harwin are required to communicate to the front panel. This table shows the proper mating connectors for your I/O board or SBC. These connectors may be purchased separately as part of a kit which includes the connector, backshell, pins and jackscrews please contact us to purchase this kit.
| Front Panel Harwin Connectors | Description | Associated Products |
| Harwin P/N M80-5S25022M3 | 50-pin male connectors, 2 mm | 68G5, 68ARM1, 75ARM1, 75G5 |

PCIe Cards 79G5 & 79C3 - NAI's PCIe cards, the 79G5 and 79C3, may need an external ±12 VDC source to power specific simulation modules. In this case the user can connect the ±12 VDC source to either the front panel J1 connector or the J3 header connector of the 79C3. The header for the 79C3 J3 connector is the Molex p/n: 53014-0310. NAI does not supply the cable mate for the J3 header. For more information on a header and help finding a mate please follow this link. For the 79G5, this table shows the proper connectors.
| ± 12 V Power (Inboard) Connector | Date of Manufacture (DOM) | ||

If your specific application requires I/O signals that are on the front panel of a conduction-cooled card, NAI's Rear Transition Modules (RTMs) are designed to provide an interface to access the front I/O of the card from the rear of the card, mimicking the card front panel 44-pin pinouts and are optimized for the platform. To reference these pinouts please look at the product manual for your product to see which rear module I/O signals are being brought out to the front panel pins. The board pinouts in the manual will reflect the pinouts of the RTM. RTMs are also available for any boards with a convection cooled option (cPCI, VME, and VPX). These boards are typically used for development, but can be used for convection-cooled systems.
NAI's breakout boards provide industry standard connections to our card utility port. The breakout boards provide communication to a host machine via ethernet, serial, and USB 2.0. These boards assist with programming your application through a host machine without connecting through a custom cable.
If you are still having trouble getting started or would like to purchase one of our optional tools such as the rear transition modules or break out boards please contact us.
