Description
The Part Number 778572-45 refers to a specialized component in the category of PXI Switches, specifically the model PXI-2545. This model is distinguished by its ability to operate within a Frequency Range of up to 2.7 GHz, making it suitable for a wide array of RF and signal processing applications. Its design is characterized by a 50 Ohm Impedance, ensuring compatibility with standard RF operational parameters.
The PXI-2545’s Configuration is a 4X1 Terminated Multiplexer, which offers flexibility in connecting multiple signal paths through a single channel. Critical to its performance is the Termination feature, which is internal to prevent high-power reflections that could degrade signal quality. This model is noted for its Excellent insertion loss, VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio), and isolation parameters, which are essential qualities for maintaining signal integrity in complex systems. Additionally, it includes a Relay life tracking capability, providing users with valuable diagnostics to anticipate maintenance and prevent unexpected system downtime.
Compatibility with software is a key feature of the PXI-2545, supporting both NI-SWITCH and NI Switch Executive. These software platforms facilitate the management of complex switching systems, enhancing the switch’s functionality and integration into larger test systems. It is particularly Suitable for applications that require the connection of measurement or signal generation instruments to multiple test points, such as in automated test equipment (ATE) environments.
Lastly, the PXI-2545 supports a variety of Relay Types including Armored-type electromechanical, Reed, FET, and Solid-state. This versatility allows users to select the appropriate relay type based on the specific requirements of their application, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
