USB Data Communications Multiplexers

8:1 or 16:1 multiplexers for switching data comms signals, specifically designed for routing USB

  • Available as 8:1 or 16:1 MUX
  • Wide Differential Bandwidth
  • Controlled Differential Impedance
  • Suitable for USB1 and USB2 Switching Applications
  • VISA, IVI & Kernel Drivers Supplied For Windows XP/Vista/7/8

The data signal paths on these USB data communications multiplexers are 2-pole arranged as differential pairs as defined by the USB standard. The signal pair has a controlled differential impedance and the multiplexer has been designed for minimum insertion loss. The USB power paths are arranged as a common negative and a switched positive. The power paths are designed to ensure minimum loss of the USB power.

These USB multiplexers are ideal for the testing of multiple devices that use USB interfaces, allowing the test system to select one target device from many. The design is bi-directional to permit use as a multiplexer or de-multiplexer with no impact on performance and uses long lifetime electro-mechanical relays characterized for use in data communications systems.

Switch Type

EMR - Electro-Mechanical Relay, cost-effective, medium power switching. Reed - reed relays, excellent low-level switching, fast, long life. Solid-State - very fast, indefinite life, high power switching, but high leakage and insertion loss.

Max I (A)

Maximum continuous current each switch can carry.

Max V DC

The maximum voltage that may be applied to each switch.

Poles

The number of common terminals simultaneously switched by a single operation. … more

Banks

The number of independent switch topologies on a single module.

Channels

The number of discrete channels in a single topology.
