Pickering's LXI Video matrices are suitable for switching frequencies up to 25MHz. They have a characteristic impedance of 75Ω with the option of mini SMB or MCX connectors, or with a larger case size BNC connectors. Designed to provide a simple and scalable bidirectional matrix for video frequencies and is intended for the easy construction of high-performance bidirectional matrix switching systems.

Software configuration allows it to be set as a dual 24x8 matrix, a single 48x8 matrix as well as other configurations. A flexible isolation switch arrangement permits the video matrices to be configured so the matrix can be expanded with other modules while maximizing the bandwidth of the switching system. Designed in accordance with the LXI Standard 1.4, it is fully programmable via the LAN interface using our code based PXI switch driver. Industry standard (W3C) web browsers can be used to access and change configuration information and provide access to the soft front panels.

Select modules are supported by our eBIRST Switching System Test Tools, these tools provide a quick and simple way of finding relay failures within LXI, PCI and PXI switch systems. These matrices are supported by a comprehensive range of cable and connector accessories and come with a standard 3-year warranty.
