General Information
Keysight 87104P/Q/R SP4T and 87106P/Q/R SP6T terminated switches provide the life and
reliability required for automated test and measurement and signal monitoring and routing
applications. These switches can be used in various applications as they are available in multiple
frequency ranges, up to 26.5 GHz.

Innovative design and careful process control create switches that meet the requirements for highly
repeatable switching elements in test instruments and switching interfaces. The exceptional
0.03 dB insertion loss repeatability is warranted for 3 million cycles at 25
°
C. This reduces sources
of random errors in the measurement path and improves measurement uncertainty. Switch life is a
critical consideration in production test systems, satellite and antenna monitoring systems, and
test instrumentation. The longevity of these switches increases system uptime and lowers the cost
of ownership by reducing calibration cycles and switch maintenance.
