Introduction
General Information
The Keysight 87406Q terminated switch provides the life and
reliability required for automated test and measurement and signal
monitoring and routing applications. The switch can be used in
various applications as it is available in multiple frequency ranges,
up to 20 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.
