SWB-2833, 4x71, 2 A, Electromechanical Relay Matrix Module for SwitchBlock
781421-33
4x71, 2 A, Electromechanical Relay Matrix Module for SwitchBlock - The SWB‑2833 is an electromechanical relay matrix card 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.

LETIS
Power amplifiers that are universally used for radiated immunity testing either cover the range below 1GHz or the range above 1GHz. This means that if the test requirement extends both sides of this 1GHz point, the power amplifier needs to be changed over. Genrally, this involves three connections... The LETIS handles all these connections automatically. Each is switched via a high performance RF relay under the control of a USB interface. Software issued with the Laplace Synthesisers automatically detects the presence of a LETIS and handles the switching automatically.
