018 Keysight PXI RF Switch Modules DC to 3 GHz
Specifications and Characteristics
M9149A and M9153A 1x16 high-density RF multiplexers
The M9149A and M9153A each contain a 1x16 RF switch
multiplexer in a single PXI module. They offer bi-directional
switching up to 3 GHz. With the 1x16 tree structure, each RF
path has been designed for repeatable measurements with
excellent insertion loss and VSWR.
