LXI Wideband Scalable RF Matrix

  • 200MHz bandwidth usable to 500MHz
  • 50Ω impedance
  • Y8 or Y16 Solutions
  • Scalable X or 104 Connections
  • High performance EMR design
  • Excellent crosstalk performance and wide bandwidth
  • Self-test facility to check all relays
  • LXI compliant interface for simple Ethernet based control

Pickering's LXI wideband scalable matrix (model 65-110A) offers you a solution that can be easily reconfigured by the removal and insertion of sub-cards. The product is purchased as an assembled chassis, baseboard and the quantity of plugin modules initially required. As your requirements evolve additional modules can be easily fitted and the control software automatically detects the new configuration.

For Y to X point to point connections the 65-110A creates a wide bandwidth matrix. For users requiring an X connection to more than one Y connection alternative multi-Y plugin modules are available to link Y connections together. If this Y to Y connection is used then the system bandwidth can be significantly lower, however if it is not used then the matrix bandwidth is maintained. The 65-110A does not support X to X connections

The LXI wideband scalable matrix s supported by a built in test tool which provides a quick and simple way of finding relay failures in the 65-110A. This matrix is also supported by a  comprehensive range of cable and connector accessories and come with a standard 3-year warranty.
