Description
The part with the number 196212G-01, also known by its alternative part number 778572-46, belongs to the category of PXI Switches. Specifically, it is the PXI-2546 model. This product is a National Instruments PXI-2546 PXI RF Multiplexer Switch Module. It is designed primarily for applications such as RF Signal Multiplexer Switching Module for HIL, fault insertion, signal insertion.
One of the key features of this module includes hardware triggering, onboard relay count tracking, and reconfigurable models, making it highly suitable for advanced testing and simulation applications. It boasts a bandwidth of up to 2.7 GHz. At this bandwidth, the insertion loss is typically less than 1.35 dB, with a more common figure being below 1.05 dB. The Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) at 2.7 GHz is less than 1.7, typically under 1.5, indicating a low reflection and high transmission quality.
For software support, this device utilizes NI Switch Executive, which enhances its functionality and ease of use in complex test systems.
