Description
The PXI Switch, part number 778572-45, is a high-performance component designed for versatile signal routing applications. The model PXI-2545 operates within a frequency range of up to 2.7 GHz and is engineered to maintain signal integrity with a standard 50 Ohm impedance. Its configuration is a 4X1 Terminated Multiplexer, which includes internal termination to prevent high-power reflections, thus ensuring reliable operation over extended periods.
This model is characterized by its low insertion loss and excellent VSWR (Voltage Standing Wave Ratio), which are critical parameters for minimizing signal loss and reflection respectively. Moreover, it boasts high isolation levels to minimize signal degradation across its switching paths. Such features make the PXI-2545 an ideal choice for demanding applications that require precise signal routing and management.
One of the notable functionalities of this switch is its Relay Account Tracking capability, which is essential for predicting relay life and reducing system downtime, thus enhancing the reliability and longevity of the system. For programming, it supports the NI-SWITCH controller software, which is IVI compatible, offering a versatile and user-friendly interface for system integration and control.
Additionally, the NI Switch Executive software tools are available for complex switching management, providing an efficient solution for configuring, controlling, and deploying switching systems. This software integration further simplifies the management of complex switch configurations, thereby reducing setup time and increasing test throughput.
