More Product Information
Southwest Microwave’s SuperSMA is a high performance field service SMA connector. SuperSMA utilizes the basic PTFE dielectric interface (true SMA) and features low VSWR mode free through 27 GHz and less than -100 dB RF leakage. The thick outer conductor wall provides great durability to assure reliability in repeat mating, enhancing component performance. The SuperSMA interface is in accordance with MIL-STD-348.
Our 1 Series cable assembly lineup features heat-resistant types that can be used in a wide continuous operating temperature range (-65 to +125°C) in microwave measurement environments, alongside durability-focused types with a dramatically improved mechanical life based on a cabling structure cultivated through developing robot cables.
- This DCS Series Controller provides Lighting Control Flexibility in a slim 112 mm x 124 mm x 23 mm package.
- Plug-n-Play compatibility with Ai lighting Products, featuring SignaTech™ technology.
- Seamless switching from continuous-on to gated on/off and strobe overdrive; 3 independently configurable trigger inputs.
- Din-rail mount, UL 508a Panel listed and GUI, Web Browser or command line setup and control tools, SDK.
- 1 output, 3 channels – designed to drive multi-channel RGB / segment lights, as well as single higher current draw lights.
