M9121A specifications and characteristics
General specifications
The M9121A ultra-high-density 4x64, full-crosspoint
switch matrix, offers high-speed reed relay signal
switching in a single PXI module. The crosspoints of the
high-speed, 2-wire, long-life reed switches can be rapidy
activated to route signals in your test system. The matrix
relays support signal switching up to 100 Vrms with 10 W
maximum power. The module includes a 4-wire-wide bus
to route signals between test instruments and your device
under test. To create larger matrices, multiple modules
can be linked together. For example, four rows of two
M9121A modules can be joined to create a 4x128 matrix.
Easily connect to the matrix with a high-density, 200-pin
low force helix (LFH) connector or cable.
