Description
The 778793-01 is a part of the PXI Switches category, specifically the PXI-2593 model. This device is a 500 MHz Multiplexer designed to offer precise signal routing with a characteristic impedance of 50 Ω. It provides various configuration options including an unterminated multiplexer, an externally terminated multiplexer, or a configurable sparse matrix, catering to different application needs.
The multiplexer operates over a frequency range from DC to over 500 MHz, ensuring wide application coverage. It features an MCX (high-density push-on) connector type, which facilitates easy and secure connections. With a 16-channel unterminated multiplexer, it allows for significant flexibility in channel management.
This model is capable of handling an RF Carry Power of up to 10 W and has a voltage rating of 150 V CAT I, making it suitable for a variety of electrical environments. Furthermore, the device is software configurable, enabling easy setup and adjustments through software applications.
The relay operate time is specified as typical: 2.4 ms, maximum: 4.4 ms, indicating swift performance for most switching applications. The mechanical relay life is impressive at 5 × 107 cycles, complemented by an electrical relay life of 3 × 105 cycles, ensuring durability and reliability over extended use.
