Matrix Switches

The MAS4488 is a broadband matrix switch with an 8 input, 8 output, non-blocking configuration. The system itself is comprised of a processor board, an 8x8 matrix, a LAN interface, a redundant power supply, and manual control.

Ducommun RF Products has been actively working with our individual customers to develop unique testing solutions with our Switch Matrices and coaxial switches.  Ducommun RF Products has over twenty five years experience with the design and manufacturing of switch matrix systems.  Combining together our technical knowledge of both coaxial switches and switching systems, we have been able to assist our customers with a variety of solution that fit their unique requirements.  Ducommun RF Products offers a complete, fully supported, turnkey solution that allows our customers to have the benefit of a customized solution at a fraction of the price.

The 60-750/751 is an LXI Microwave Switching platform controlled through an LXI compliant Ethernet connection. The matrix is available in a variety of configurations and frequencies up to 20 GHz and features a “Loop Through” option to create even larger matrices.

The L-Band matrix distributes 8 L-band signals to 8 receivers in the frequency range 950 … 2150 MHz without any blocking.

Dow-Key Microwave, a leader in the design and manufacture of switching products, acquired its Matrix line in 1999. Since that time, the line has expanded to include both standard and custom matrices supporting the aerospace, military and communication industries for both signal routing and ATE applications.

CrossPoint Technologie's MS-4001-32X32-HF-HIA is a Switch Matrix System covering the HF frequency band of 1.5 – 32 MHz. This system provides 32 X 32 non-blocking switching and distribution where any of the 32 inputs can be routed to one or all 32 outputs simultaneously...

A blocking RF switch matrix can achieve high levels of isolation and lower levels of insertion loss because of their internal switches (which exhibit high isolation and low loss characteristics). They’re the simplest type of available RF switch matrix configurations.

A super non-blocking switch matrix has the most flexible architecture, yet most complex when compared to blocking and non-blocking types.  In this configuration any input can be switched to any and all outputs.  In addition to this, multiple inputs can be routed to the same output.  Input 1, for example, can be simultaneously switched to every output or selectively switched to several outputs at once. Input 2 can also be simultaneously switched to every output or selectively switched to several outputs at once, regardless of how Input 1 (or any other input) is routed.  The same is true for all of the remaining inputs.
