Standex Detect - High Frequency Relays
High frequency reed relays are engineered for precision signal switching from DC up to 8 GHz, making them ideal for RF, microwave, and high-speed digital applications. These relays feature ultra-short signal paths and internal coaxial shielding with consistent 50 Ohm impedance, ensuring minimal insertion loss and excellent signal integrity. With rise times under 40 picoseconds and low contact resistance, they support fast pulse switching and high isolation in compact designs. Available in surface-mount packages with advanced shielding, they are optimized for automated test equipment, wireless systems, and high-frequency PCB layouts.

Coaxial air lines are air-dielectric transmission lines with highly accurate dimensions that can be used as fundamental impedance standards in measurement and calibration applications, and may also be used to establish reference positions for measurements.
Bead supported air lines offer greater convenience and easier connections (the center conductor is automatically aligned by the dielectric bead for easy connection); beadless air lines offer better impedance and electrical length accuracies, as well as lower VSWR (the center conductor floats free in the air line body, and the male connector nut is retractable to facilitate insertion of the center conductor contact before the thread- on connection tightened.
The PPS®5000, produced by Safran Spacecraft Propulsion, is a Hall Effect Thruster purposely designed for “all-electric” satellites. It can operate in high-thrust or high specific impulse mode,and offers an operating lifespan of about 20,000 hours. This means it can handle orbital positioning and station-keeping duties for a wide range of telecom and navigation satellites, as well as exploration spacecraft. The PPS®5000 was fully qualified in 2021.

Side Mount Liquid Level Sensors offer robust and versatile solutions for accurate fluid level monitoring. Designed with flexible mounting options, including external/internal threads and grommet inserts, these sensors feature separate float/sensor designs to minimize leak paths. Ideal for automotive, industrial, and medical applications, they support both Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) configurations, with power options up to 100W. Integration is simplified with cable harnesses and connector options, making them a trusted choice for OEMs and Tier 1 platforms.
- The BX2 Series of edge-lit backlights provides a highly diffuse source of illumination, packed within a thin and thermally efficient housing.
- The BX2 allows for configuration with polarization or collimation. A backlight configured with collimation is best suited for applications requiring a higher degree of edge clarity when imaging object silhouettes.
- This second edition of our edge-lit backlight series is more than twice as bright as previous BX and CX models.
- As with most planar backlight designs, this product is useful for edge detection, part location & orientation identification, presence & absence, hole detection and object gauging.
Southwest Microwave offers a full range of within-series and between-series precision adapters with near-metrology grade performance.
