RF & Microwave Solutions

Pickering Interfaces Stand: J1

Standard/COTS PXI, LXI & USB Switching with bandwidths from 100 MHz to 110 GHz

  • PXI RF & Microwave switch modules that cover the frequency spectrum, including SPDT, transfer, MUX and matrix switching.
  • These modules can be used in our PXI or PXIe hybrid chassis or our  LXI/USB chassis, allowing remote control over USB or a gigabit Ethernet connection. 
  • LXI standard solutions - ethernet-controlled rack-mountable signal routing solutions.
  • An example is our LXI RF & Microwave Multiplexers, offering the highest density configuration possible, packaging up to 16 multiplexers onto a 2U high rack.

Flexible RFIU Switch Platforms

These flexible, configurable PXI and LXI microwave switch solutions may be specified with a mix of high-performance microwave relays up to 110 GHz bandwidth at 50Ω impedance or up to 2.5 GHz at 75Ω impedance and a range of connector types.

  • Available relays include Transfer, SPDT, SP4T, SP6T, SP8T, SP10T and SP12T in unterminated and terminated versions 
  • Flexibility in front-panel relay positioning helps minimize external interconnecting cable lengths 
  • LED indication of energized switch paths 
  • Our model 60-890-001 is an example of mixed configuration microwave switch that was created for a customer and has now become a standard product
