Does the NI 9151 Affect the Performance of my C Series Modules?

Hardware: CompactRIO>>Chassis (Backplanes)>>cRIO-9151

Problem:
I am using the NI 9151 R Series Expansion Chassis with my PXI R Series card. Does using the expansion chassis affect the performance of my C Series modules compared to using them in a normal CompactRIO Chassis?

Solution:
The expansion chassis does inflict different speed limitations on several modules. Additionally, the NI 9151 does not support sharing timebases between modules that have Delta-Sigma ADC. The detailed specifications can be found in the manual for each individual module, but here is a list of modules whose speed is affected by using the NI 9151 R Series Expansion Chassis.

Analog Input Modules
NI 9201, NI 9203, NI 9205, NI 9206, NI 9221

Analog Output Modules
NI 9263, NI 9264, NI 9265

Digital Modules
NI 9403, NI 9425

Delta-Sigma ADC Modules
NI 9225, NI 9229, NI 9233, NI 9234, NI 9235, NI 9236, NI 9237, NI 9239

File IO Modules
NI 9802
