National Instruments PXI-2596 26.5 GHz Dual 6×1 Unterminated Multiplexer
Features
50 Ω Characteristic Impedance
Onboard Relay Count Tracking
Fully Software Programmable
26.5 GHz Performance (Typical): -0.3 dB Insertion Loss; VSWR of 1.3
The National Instruments PXI-2596 Dual 6×1 Unterminated Multiplexer route RF or microwave signals in automated test applications. While designed to operate with less than 1 dB insertion loss up to 26.5 GHz, they appear almost invisible to signals at much lower frequencies as well. The PXI-2596 offers a higher-density, unterminated option with dual 6×1 multiplexer banks in the same module. The switches count relay closures on each of their individual relays. Relay counts are incremented each time a relay is actuated. You can programmatically retrieve the counts, stored on board the modules, and use them for predictive maintenance to reduce unexpected system downtime.
