Siglent SSM5142A 9 kHz-9 GHz 4 input 12 outputs switch matrix
The Siglent SSM5142A switch matrix expands the number of test ports of network analyzer, signal source, spectrum analyzer and other equipment. The SSM5142A will add 4 input ports and up to 12 output ports and supports USB, LAN, Direct Control communication modes. The Direct Control interface on the switch matrix can further expand the number of test ports and support a simplified multi-port calibration algorithm, which can greatly improve the efficiency of calibration.
SSM5000A series switch matrix, can expand the number of test ports of network analyzer, signal source, spectrum analyzer and other equipment. The series names are like SSM5XYZA, The X represents different operating frequency, Y represents the number of combiner ports, Z represents the number (divided by 6) of division ports. When X is 1, the operating frequency range covers 9 kHz-9 GHz, when it is 3, covers 100 kHz-26.5 GHz. And the series are with up to 4 input ports and up to 24 output ports, supporting USB, LAN, Direct Control communication modes. The Direct Control interface on the switch matrix can further expand the number of test ports and support a simplified multi-port calibration algorithm, which can greatly improve the efficiency of calibration. In addition to SIGLENT instruments, it also supports other brand instruments. It is suitable for 19-inch standard chassis and can be widely used in multi-port test environments such as antennas and 5G component modules.
Easily Meet Multi-port Test Requirements
SSM5000A series switch matrix can expand the number of test ports of network analyzer, signal source, spectrum analyzer and other equipment. And the series are with up to 4 input ports and up to 24 output ports, supporting USB, LAN, Direct Control communication modes. In addition to SIGLENT instruments, it also supports other mainstream instruments. It is suitable for 19-inch standard chassis and can be widely used in multi-port test environments such as antennas and 5G component modules.
Signal Generator and SA Test Port Extension
Using a switch matrix with a signal source and spectrum analyzer, the signal source and spectrum analyzer are extended to 24 ports, which can be used to test the transmission and reception of multiple DUTs. When testing the emission index, the software switches to 24 ports in turn, then the expansion of the signal source is completed; when testing the receiving index, the software can also switch to 24 ports in turn to complete the expansion of the spectrum analyzer. The matrix switch can greatly reduce the number of signal source and spectrum analyzer, save cost and improve test efficiency.
