SIMRC - 16 x Uncommitted Reed Relay, SPST
1010-R-16-1-5/1D
Reed Relay
Our small format embedded switching (SIM relay) cards offer a choice of switching configurations using low cost industry standard SIM connectors. They free the designer from the detail of routing complex switching circuits, you may select from a wide range of cards using the built in RS-232 and I2C interfaces. These low-cost embedded switching cards are intended to be mounted on to a simple motherboard. They may be used to construct very high density switching networks. SIM based switching cards also allow for very simple in-field maintenance.

SWB-2817, 16x22, 0.3 A, Reed Matrix Module for SwitchBlock
781420-17
Relay Matrix Module
16x22, 0.3 A, Reed Matrix Module for SwitchBlock - The SWB‑2817 is a reed relay matrix module for SwitchBlock systems. Designed for high power, it can operate as an individual relay card or expand in a single carrier or single PXI chassis. You can connect any input to any output, individually or in combination. You can use matrix switches to route signals from oscilloscopes, DMMs, arbitrary waveform generators, and power supplies to various test points on a unit under test (UUT). The primary benefit of matrix switches is simplified wiring—the overall test system can easily and dynamically change the internal connection path without any external manual intervention.

The switch banks have been carefully designed to ensure excellent and repeatable RF characteristics to frequencies of 3GHz with each path having a nominally equal insertion loss. The design of the 40/42-830A minimizes the injection of noise and unwanted signals into the signal path by careful attention to the mechanical and electrical design.
