Description
The National Instruments PXI-2599 is a high-performance PXI RF Relay Module designed for a wide range of applications. With a part number of 778572-99, this module falls under the category of PXI Switches. The model, PXI-2599, is specifically crafted to meet the demands of complex RF signal routing requirements.
This module is characterized by its type, which is a Dual SPDT, 26.5 GHz, 50 Ω PXI RF Relay Module. It supports a maximum carry current (per channel) of 1.73 Arms and a maximum RF carry power of 150 W at a 50 Ω load. The minimum requirement for the switch load is -35 dBm, ensuring efficient operation even at low power levels.
The relay type used in this module is latching electromechanical relays, known for their reliability and durability. The insertion loss is impressively low, at less than 0.7 dB, which ensures minimal signal degradation. Additionally, the voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) is less than 1.7, indicating efficient power transfer and minimal reflection.
One of the key features of the PXI-2599 is its open channel isolation, which is greater than 55 dB. This specification highlights the module’s ability to prevent signal leakage between channels, ensuring signal integrity. For RF carry power at frequencies up to 26.5 GHz, the module can handle up to 25 W, suitable for a wide range of high-frequency applications.
This module is classified under measurement category I, indicating its capability to handle signals with a max signal voltage of up to ≤ 100 V. This feature, along with its other technical specifications, makes the PX
