The system is configured with maximum (6) N-type inputs and (12) N-type outputs, but it can be configured to any number of inputs and outputs (not exceeding the maximum). Model 4166 offers flexibility in terms of desired configuration, but also a system with terminated coaxial switches that latches. Latching switches have the benefit of stop drawing current after a path has been selected and stays in its last position if a power loss occurs. The unit is equipped with front panel LCD/keypad display for manual control, and remotely it can be controlled via Ethernet (ENET), or GPIB using SCPI commands. The LNET version uses LXI protocol which allows the user to only control the unit remotely and offers web-browser control capability.

The system is configured with maximum (10) inputs and (10) outputs, but can be configured to a smaller crossbar matrix as required. The unit is unique in the sense that both inputs and outputs are terminated with a 50 W load and it uses latching coaxial switches. These type of switches have the benefit of stop drawing current after a path has been selected and stays in its last position if a power loss occurs. Furthermore, the unit is ideal to be used for testing, since one can easily access the I/O ports (as they are mounted on the front panel) to connect and disconnect UUTs.

Remotely, the system is offered with the choices of three control interfaces: Ethernet, GPIB, or LXI protocol. Using specific SCPI commands, one can switch individual coaxial switches. Control Interfaces Local control (on the front panel): >> The system is equipped with manual control via a 4-line LCD (4x40) display and keypad control. Best used for RF signal switching among exchangeable devices in test bench setup that requires easy access to RF I/Os. Remote Control (on the rear panel): All versions are equipped with >> RS-232 (DP9 female) connector with Baud Rate 9600 bps >> CANBus (DP9 male) used for programming the unit >> SCPI commands Physical Relay Type: Contact Material: I/O Connector Type: Dimensions: Front Panel Color: Weight (max): Latching Terminated Multiposition Beryllium copper, gold-plated SMA Female 19" wide standard rack mount 3U maximum height (5.25") 22" maximum depth Gray 22 lbs ENET or LNET (Options): >> TCP/IP control via 802.3 protocol (Ethernet) >> Supports 10BASE-T/100BASE-T via RJ-45 connector. >> LXI style remote access via any web browser (only LNET version) GPIB (Option): >> IEEE-488 with 26 pin female connector RF Characteristics Impedance: Operating Frequency: Switching Speed: Operating Life: 50 Ohms DC-18 GHz 50-100 ms (max) 1,000,000 cycles (Cold Switching) Frequency [GHz] VSWR Isolation [dB] Insertion Loss [dB] CW Power Handling [W] DC - 4 1.20:1 80 0.20 100 4-8 1.30:1 75 0.30 50 8 - 12.4 1.40:1 70 0.40 35 12.4 -18 1.50:1 60 0.50 25 v2.0 03/09 www.dowkey.com 27 [email protected] 4601 Model Electromechanical - RF Switching System Features 1 - 18 GHz Bidirectional Non-Blocking Full Fan-Out Matrix: n Inputs by n Outputs (4x4, 5x5, 6x6, 7x7, or 8x8) Local Control : LCD Touch Screen Display Remote Control: RS-232 / ENET or GPIB / RS-232 Part Numbers 4601 - 4/4 - * 4601 - 5/5 - * * ENET or GPIB 4601 - 6/6 - * 4601 - 7/7 - * 4601 - 8/8 - * Photo: 4601-8/8-ENET Physical Relay Type: Contact Material: I/O Connector Type: Dimensions: Front Panel Color: Weight (max): Description The 4601 Model is a Non-blocking Full Fan-Out (any input connected to any output simultaneously) coaxial switching system which operates from 1 GHz up to 18 GHz. The system is configured with maximum (8) N-type inputs and (8) SMA-type outputs. Furthermore, all inputs are outfitted with high linearity amplifiers in order to compensate for system insertion loss. RF Characteristics The 4601-series is equipped with Windows XP operating system (CPU), LCD touch screen display for local control, and redundant power supplies with LED monitoring on the front panel. Remotely, in addition to RS-232 it is either offered with Ethernet or GPIB control.
