Starting at $5,704.00
Part number(s):
778572-46

2.7 GHz, 50 Ω, Dual 4x1 PXI RF Multiplexer Switch Module

Overview

The PXI-2546 is an RF signal multiplexer switch module. The multibank architecture of the PXI-2546 makes it ideal for test systems that require parallel operations such as RF stimulus-response testing. The module also provides excellent insertion loss, voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR), and isolation parameters to minimize signal degradation. You can use the onboard relay count tracking feature to predict relay lifetime and reduce unexpected system downtime.
