Miniature Matrix: MMC Series Controlled with USB or Ethernet COAX SWITCHES PART NUMBER DESCRIPTION The MMC Series is an ideal solution that consists of multi-throw, electromechanical coaxial switches designed to switch a microwave signal from a common input to any of 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 outputs. The characteristic impedance is 50 Ohms. With the normally open actuator, all paths are open when the switch is de-energized. The MMC Series is designed to allow the remote operation of 1 to 2 Single Pole Multi Throw switches. Remote operation is accomplished via TCP/IP commands to the Matrix’s Ethernet interface. Switch control is also accessible via the USB virtual serial port, using the provided command set. Through these interfaces the Coax Switch can be switched to the desired position and its position can be read for verification. The default switch position at power up can be set by the user. The MMC will feature a graphical user interface (GUI), which will enable user to control switches through graphical icons and visuals.

Ethernet A high-speed interface used in local area networks (LAN). Ethernet is also known as IEEE 802.3 standard. DHCP or Static IP can be configured through a web interface. Isolation Isolation is the measure of the power level at the output connector of an unconnected RF channel as referenced to the power at the input connector. It is specified in dB below the input power level. Magnetic Sensitivity An electro-mechanical switch can be sensitive to ferrous materials and external magnetic fields. Neighboring ferrous materials should be permitted no closer than 0.5 inches and adjacent external magnetic fields should be limited to a flux density of less than 5 Gauss. Multi-Throw Switch A multi-throw switch is a switch with one input and three or more output ports. The SPMT can switch a microwave signal to any of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 outputs from a single common input. Performance Parameters vs Frequency Generally speaking, the RF performance of coaxial switches is frequency dependent. With increasing frequency, VSWR and insertion loss increase while isolation decreases. All data sheets specify these three parameters as “worst case” at the highest operating frequency. If the switch is to be used over a narrow frequency band, better performance can be achieved. Switching Time Switching time is the total interval beginning with the arrival of the leading edge of the command pulse at the switch DC input and ending with the completion of the switch transfer, including contact bounce. It consists of three parts: (1) inductive delay in the coil, (2) transfer time of the physical movement of the contacts, and (3) the bounce time of the RF contacts. This does not include time added by the communication interface, application or operating system. Universal Serial Bus (USB) An industry standard that defines the cables, connectors and communication protocols used in a bus for connection, communication and power supply between computers and electronic devices. VCP Driver available for Windows OS, Mac OS, and Linux. Termination When not connected to the common port, RF ports are shunted to ground via a 50Ω path, rated for 1W.
