PXI Dual 2 Channel Optic Mux FC/PC
40-855-022
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 Dual 4 to 1 RF Multiplexer 3GHz 50 Ohm MCX Terminated
40-876-102
The 40-876-102 is a 50 Ohm 4 to 1 RF multiplexer with 2 banks in a single PXI slot. Additionally, extra switching allows the common connection to be terminated into 50 Ohm, maintaining signal integrity. The module has low insertion loss and VSWR through the use of modern RF relay technology at an affordable cost. Each MUX has been carefully designed to ensure excellent and repeatable RF characteristics to frequencies of 3GHz with each path having a nominally equal insertion loss. The injection of noise and unwanted signals into the signal paths of the 40-876 has been minimized by careful attention to the mechanical and electrical design.
