Industrial Control & Defense Computing Solution — ALPHI Technology PCI-4PACK 736-5-001 | PCI-4PACK Series
Where This Product Is Used
The ALPHI PCI-4PACK 736-5-001 PCIe Bus Interface Module is purpose-built for demanding embedded computing environments where reliable, high-speed bus communication is non-negotiable. Typical deployment scenarios include:
- Defense & Military Systems — Rugged command-and-control platforms, radar signal processing, and avionics data acquisition requiring deterministic PCIe bus access.
- Aerospace Ground Support Equipment (GSE) — Test benches and simulation rigs that interface legacy PCI peripherals with modern PCIe-based host systems.
- Industrial Automation & SCADA — Factory-floor controllers, motion control systems, and distributed I/O architectures where multi-slot PCI expansion is required inside a PCIe chassis.
- Medical Imaging & Instrumentation — High-throughput data acquisition cards requiring stable, low-latency bus bridging.
- Telecommunications & Network Infrastructure — Protocol conversion and signal routing in carrier-grade chassis environments.

Why Engineers Specify This Model
- Quad-Slot Density — The PCI-4PACK architecture consolidates four PCI peripheral slots into a single PCIe host connection, dramatically reducing chassis footprint and cabling complexity.
- ALPHI Technology Pedigree — ALPHI has over 30 years of heritage in rugged bus interface solutions for defense and aerospace OEMs, ensuring long-term availability and engineering support.
- Drop-In PCIe Compatibility — Transparent bridging means existing PCI driver stacks require no modification, protecting legacy software investments.
- Deterministic Latency — Critical for real-time control loops in motion control and signal processing applications.
- Long Product Lifecycle — Designed for programs with 10–20 year operational requirements; not a commercial off-the-shelf commodity.

Application-Specific FAQ
Q: Can the PCI-4PACK 736-5-001 support legacy 5 V PCI cards?
A: The PCI-4PACK series is designed to support both 3.3 V and 5 V PCI signaling environments. Confirm your specific card’s voltage requirements with ALPHI’s datasheet before integration.
Q: Is this module compatible with Windows, Linux, and VxWorks?
A: ALPHI provides driver support for Windows and Linux; VxWorks and other RTOS compatibility depends on the specific peripheral card. Contact us for driver availability confirmation.
Q: What is the maximum data throughput across the PCIe bridge?
A: Throughput is governed by the PCIe lane configuration and PCI bus arbitration. For bandwidth-critical applications, consult the ALPHI PCI-4PACK datasheet or contact our engineering team.
Q: Can Konmask provide export documentation for international shipments?
A: Yes. We provide commercial invoices, packing lists, and ECCN/EAR classification documentation. Note that ALPHI products may be subject to US export control regulations (EAR99 or controlled). Buyer is responsible for import compliance.
Q: Do you offer warranty on this module?
A: All units sold by Konmask.com carry a 90-day functional warranty. Extended warranty and repair services available — inquire at support@konmask.com.
