04 | Keysight | M9155/6/7C PXI Hybrid Switch Modules DC to 26.5 GHz – Data Sheet
Connections are made via front panel mounted high quality RF coaxial connectors,
3.5 mm (f) or SMA (f) for 50 Ω.
The M9155/6/7C switch modules give you the most reliable and repeatable RF &
microwave switching available in the market. Their applications are mainly in automated
test equipment for example, RF communication, engineering verification and RF
parametric measurement where low insertion loss and ultra high isolation are critical.
These modules provide individual cycle count trackings for each of the switch paths.
Cycle count is incremented per each complete Open-Close sequence. The individual
cycle count is user-retrievable, either via scripting or the Soft Front Panel. Engineers can
use this feature for scheduled maintenance to reduce unexpected system downtime.

Hardware platform
Compliance
The M9155/6/7C is PXI compliant, using either a PXI-H, PXI-1 or cPCI slot. Designed
to benefit from fast data interfaces, the products can be integrated with other test and
automation modules in PXI, CompactPCI, and Hybrid chassis. The PXI format offers
high performance in a small, rugged package. It is an ideal deployment platform for
many automated test systems. A wide array of complementary PXI products is currently
available. Products include multimeters, waveform generators, local oscillators, digitizers,
and switch multiplexers.
Software platform
Drivers
Keysight‘s switches come complete with software drivers for Windows XP, Windows
Vista, Windows 7, and LabVIEW. Also included are application code examples for
LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Visual Studio, C, C++, MATLAB.
Soft front panel
The M9155/6/7C’s graphical user interface guides developers through the module
setup process. Users can quickly configure the module parameters. The interfaces are
implemented using the IVI standard supporting both IVI-COM and IVI-C.
Easy software integration
Keysight’s M9155/6/7C comes complete with software drivers for Windows XP, Windows
Vista, Windows 7, and LabVIEW. Also included are application code examples for
LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Visual Studio, C, C++, C#, Visual Basic, and MATLAB, which
provide M9155/6/7C set up and basic switching functionality. The application code
examples are easily modified to quickly integrate the module into your measurement
system.
Calibration intervals
The M9155/6/7C is factory calibrated and shipped with an ISO-9001, NIST-traceable
calibration certificate.
