PXI Quad 4 to 1 RF Multiplexer 3GHz 50 Ohm SMB
40-872-004
Multiplexer Module
The 40-872-004 is a 50 Ohm 4 to 1 RF MUX available with 4 banks in a single PXI slot. It exhibits low insertion loss and VSWR through the use of modern RF relay technology at an affordable cost. Each MUX has been carefully designed to ensure excellent and repeatable RF characteristics to frequencies of 3GHz with each path having a nominally equal insertion loss. The injection of noise and unwanted signals into the signal paths of the 40-872 has been minimized by careful attention to the mechanical and electrical design.

RF Test Enclosure Ideal For High-volume Repeatable Testing, ≥90 DB Isolation, 300 MHz - 18 GHz
dbGUARD
-
The dbGUARD provides up to 90 dB isolation from 300 MHz to 18 GHz. The IASG (Inverted Asymmetric Squarewave Gasket) design eliminates any leakage along the perimeter of the RF enclosure. This makes the dbGUARD conducive to testing all wireless technologies including 5G/LTE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, ZigBee, WiMAX, etc. The interior cavity is finished with a next-generation RF absorptive coating similar to what is found in stealth technology. This allows for positioning the DUT in the shielded box without affecting attenuation caused by reflections.
