PXI/PXIe 1000Base-T1 Fault Insertion Switch, 6-Channel
40-203-002
The 40-203-002 (PXI) and 42-203-002 (PXIe) are designed to simulate common faults on high-speed two wire communication interfaces such as 1000Base-T1. They support 6 channels of two wire serial interfaces. Each channel pair can simulate an open fault in either or both wires, and using the fault bus switches can simulate short between both wires or a short to one of two externally applied fault connections – such as battery supply or ground - via two fault buses.

PXI Single 2 Channel Fiber MUX SC
40-855-212-M
Pickering PXI Fiber Optic MEMS Switching cards are available in many high density formats with a choice of 5 different connector styles to suit most applications: FC/APC (for optimal performance), FC/PC and SC/PC for general applications and LC and MU for high density applications. Fiber optic multiplexers create a signal path by redirecting the optical signal into a selected output fiber. This is achieved using Micro-Mechanical Mirrors driven by a highly precise mechanism and activated via an electrical control signal.

PXI/PXIe Microwave Relay, Single SPDT, 110 GHz, 50 Ω, SMA-1.0, External Termination, Latching
42-781A-921-LA
Externally terminated switches have the advantage that the terminations can be removed and replaced with higher power RF loads. This also allows alternative configurations such as terminated 4-port bypass (1 termination removed) and 5-port DP3T (both terminations removed). See the datasheet for diagrams of these configurations.
