Pickering 40-726A-511-L RF Coaxial Matrix Module
The Pickering 40-726A-511-L is a PXI based 12x8 RF coaxial matrix module with integrated Y axis loop thru capability. It uses ruthenium relays of reed that deliver uniform switching under demanding conditions. This module supports a maximum frequency of 300 MHz which suits controlled RF signal routing tasks. The 40-726A-511-L module provides a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms for consistent RF performance. Its design maintains low insertion loss across single cross-point paths enabling predictable system integration outcomes. The module offers isolation enhancement using integrated switches that disconnect unused paths for improved signal integrity. It supports bidirectional routing across twelve X inputs and eight Y outputs without ground switching. The unit’s loop thru function enables seamless matrix expansion while maintaining bandwidth above 200 MHz. It uses 20 SMB front panel connectors that simplify attachment of controlled RF paths and its 8 loops thru flying leads measure 120 mm in length for routing. It requires an 80 mm clearance to allow clean loop thru cable arrangement.
It operates from a 5 V supply drawing a typical current of 350 mA. Its switching elements support 10 W maximum power which suits controlled low level industrial RF applications. The module supports one billion operations under low power conditions ensuring reliable repetitive switching in automation and supports 0.5 A carry current for enabling stable routing of moderate RF loads. The operate time of this 40-726A-511-L coaxial matrix module remains below 1 ms for enabling responsive execution inside timed automation routines. Its thermal offset stays below 30 microvolts which benefits precise signal measurement environments significantly. The module delivers controlled crosstalk performance with typical values below 40 decibels at 50 MHz.
The 40-726A-511-L's isolation performance depends on matrix position but generally remains stable across moderate frequency ranges. Its mechanical format follows a single slot three-unit PXI outline suited for automation systems. It complies with EN61010 and EN61326 standards for ensuring electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility assurance. The interface of this matrix module uses a 33 MHz PCI bus which supports stable control communication paths. Its connector layout and loop thru capability simplifies expansion when constructing larger automated RF matrices. This Pickering 40-726A-511-L integrates these functions to support precise industrial RF switching requirements effectively.
