Agilent / HP 87606B
Switch matrix Coaxial DC-20 GHz
Description
This Matrix Switch provides the life and reliability required for automated test and measurement, signal monitoring and routing applications.
Innovative design and careful process control creates a switch that meets the requirements for highly repeatable switching elements in test instruments and switching interfaces.
The switch is designed to operate for more than 10 million cycles and will meet all electrical specifications for at least 5 million cycles.
The switch exhibits exceptional insertion loss repeatability.
This reduces sources of random errors in the measurement path and improves measurement uncertainty.
Switch life is a critical consideration in production test systems, satellite and antenna monitoring systems, and test instrumentation.
The longevity of the switch increases system uptime, and lowers the cost of ownership by reducing calibration cycles and switch maintenance.
