Switch Systems Come With 8 SPDT Coax Microwave Relays

The new Model S46 Microwave Switch System reportedly is the first such system that can be ordered in a wide variety of configurations using an off-the-shelf product. The systems can be built with up to eight SPDT coaxial microwave relays and up to four multi-pole relays. Any of the multi-pole relays can be specified as either SP3T, SP4T, SP5T or SP6T. The relays can be connected to create switching systems that are configured as multiplexers, matrices, independent relays, or any combination that meets users' needs. For added versatility, coaxial relay connections are provided on the front panel, and the physical position of each relay can be specified by the customer. Moreover, as test requirements change, relays can be easily changed or added to the system to create a new switch configuration. The resulting 19" rack package comes in a mounting height as low as 2U (3.5"). When ordered with standard options, the Model S46 is available from stock, with list prices starting at less than $5000.
