We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "VXI", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Acquisitions support LXI advances from Agilent Technologies Europe, which we summarised at the time by saying "Agilent Technologies plans to maintain membership in the PXI Systems Alliance to support the customers of two recent acquisitions, Acqiris and PXIT". A few weeks before, we featured the news release Miniature switches suit VXI RF instruments from Link Microtek: "Miniature electromechanical RF switches are designed for use in single-slot VXIbus modules and other applications where space is restricted".
 
In January 2007, we covered the news from VxI Power concerning its Studer Compact series - take a look at Inverter/charger provides UPS functions which says: "Versatile inverter/chargers combine the functions of a sinewave inverter, a battery charger and an automatic transfer system to manage the available power".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Board Test Workshops, Board test workshop calls for papers, as well as Controller puts Pentium M in charge of VXI from KineticSystems Company, and Microwave switches meet LXI standard from Pickering Interfaces.
