Description
The 193273A-01 is part of the PXI Switches category, specifically the PXI-2598 model. This 26 GHz Transfer Switch is designed for high-frequency applications, supporting a frequency range of up to 26.5 GHz. It is characterized by a nominal impedance of 50 Ω and can handle a maximum carry current of 1.25 Arms per channel. Additionally, it has a maximum RF carry power of 75 W and a maximum switch load of -35 dBm.
The PXI-2598 employs an electromechanical, latching type relay, ensuring durability with an expected mechanical relay life of 2.5 × 106 cycles. It boasts an impressive insertion loss repeatability of <0.03 dB, guaranteeing consistent performance. The switch’s contacts are made from beryllium copper, gold-plated material for reliable connectivity.
This module features SMA jacks (8) for connection and is classified as a 3U, two slot, PXI module. It has an approximate weight of 302 grams, making it a lightweight addition to any setup. The PXI-2598 is optimized for a recommended cycle speed of 5 channels/s, with a minimum pulse width for trigger signals set at 150 ns. This specification ensures efficient operation and compatibility with a wide range of high-frequency switching applications.
