The SM7000 Series microwave switching modules are members of the VXI Technology SMIPII™ family. They offer a modular design allowing custom switching configurations to be easily assembled and modified in the field.
The SM7000 is a single-wide, C-size VXI module, which can support up to six different microwave switches including: a dual SPDT; SP3T through SP6T; transfer switches and passthrough adapters that allow the module to control up to eight externally mounted relays each.
The award winning VXI Modular Instrumentation Platform (VMIP™) provides customers with a level of modularity for instruments that is unmatched in the industry. The VMIP™ makes a single VXIbus card slot three times more powerful than single device solutions. Each VMIP™ instrument can be mixed and matched with other VMIP™ devices for added flexibility.
