WARNING

For versions with SMA connectors, only the correct connector series should be mated with these

modules. The 40-785B range uses SMA, SMA-2.9 & SMA-2.4 connectors depending upon the module’s

frequency range, and the user should only mate the correct type to the module, failure to do so may

result in damage to the connector.

Also, it is important that the connector’s nut is properly tightened to the correct torque. For SMA

connectors, this should be with a 5/16 inch wrench and be 3-5 in·lbs (0.3 to 0.6 N·m) for brass, or 7-10

in·lbs (0.8–1.1 N·m) for stainless steel. For N-type connectors, this should be with an 18mm wrench and

be 15 in·lbs (1.7 N·m).

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS

WARNING - HAZARDOUS ENVIRONMENTS SYMBOL

atmospheres. If the product is to be used in hazardous environments we recommend that the user

ensures suitable protective measures are taken.

WARNING - DANGER OF ELECTRIC SHOCK SYMBOL

This module may contain hazardous voltages. Before removing the module from the rack remove all

supplies and disconnect user I/O signals.

Unused slots in the host chassis are populated with blanking plates to prevent access to user

I/O signals that may be present. Blanking panels are available to order from Pickering in a variety

of slot widths. If the product is not used in this manner for example by using an extender card then

additional care must be taken to avoid contact with exposed signals.

CAUTION - HANDLING OF ELECTROSTATIC-SENSITIVE DEVICES SYMBOL

Certain semiconductor devices used in this equipment are liable to damage due to static voltage.

Observe the following precautions when handling these devices in their unterminated state, or

sub-assemblies containing these devices:

1. Persons removing sub-assemblies from equipment using these devices must be earthed by a

wrist strap and a resistor at the point provided on the equipment.

2. Soldering irons used during the repair operations must be low voltage types with earthed tips and

isolated from the mains voltage by a double insulated transformer.

3. Outer clothing worn must be unable to generate static charges.

anti-static bags.

CAUTION - PRODUCT DOCUMENTATION SYMBOL

and understood before attempting to install or operate the product.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

All cleaning and servicing requires the equipment to be isolated and disconnected from the power source and user I/O

signals (refer to the Maintenance Section).

• Appropriate manual handling procedures should be followed as dictated by the weight of the individual module or

the combined weight of the modules & chassis.

• Should a fault occur with the module or chassis, immediately isolate and disconnect the incoming power to the

chassis and the user I/O signals.

• Ensure the equipment is installed, operated and maintained by trained and authorised personnel.

• For suitably equipped products in the event of an emergency press the red “emergency stop” button situated on

the front of the unit.

microwave multiplexers via

interface cables

The 40-785B range of PXI microwave multiplexer modules

are suitable for switching 50 Ω signals up to 50 GHz. They

are available in single or dual 6 channel conﬁgurations with

relays mounted on the front panel. Remote versions are also

available which can support up to three multiplexers in a

single slot.

The remote multiplexer versions, as well as occupying less

PXI panel space, allow the microwave relays to be placed

closer to the UUT and RF test equipment. This can shorten

the length of cables and improve system performance.

Remote multiplexers are supplied with a 1.5m interface cable.

The panel mounted 50 Ω terminated version occupies 4 slots

for the single version or 6 slots for the dual version.

A 75 Ω version is available with a bandwidth of 2.5 GHz and

uses Siemens 1.6/5.6 style connectors.

The 40-785B range is suitable

for constructing complex

microwave switching networks

and includes switching

conﬁgurations to suit most

applications. Connection is

by high performance SMA,

SMA-2.9, SMA-2.4 or N-type

connectors for 50 Ω versions.

These modules give you the

highest RF and microwave

switching performance

available within a Pickering

switching system. Although

designed for microwave

applications, they have many

uses in the RF spectrum

where extremely low insertion

loss and ultra high isolation

are critical.
