The configurable Switch Unit R&S®ZS129A5 is ideal for a wide variety of indoor RF and IF switching applications. Its flexible concept allows adaptation to system requirements by adding optional modules. The R&S®ZS129A5 is of modular design. Various switches, power splitters and DC feeds can be integrated into an empty prefabricated enclosure to meet specific requirements.
The basic unit is a rugged 19" rackmount with a height of two units for easy integration into system racks. Since the R&S®ZS129A5 does not have to be operated manually, it can be located at a remote position, e.g. somewhere inside a rack so that no space is wasted at the front. The basic unit comprises an integrated connection board and connectors for control inputs, control outputs and an optional external power supply. Inside, there is a lot of space to integrate optional modules.
The following switch modules have been designed as standard for the R&S®ZS129A5:
- R&S® ZS129S1: 1-out-of-2, DC to 3 GHz
- R&S ZS129S2: 1-out-of-6, DC to 3 GHz
- R&S® ZS129S3: 1-out-of-8, DC to 3 GHz
- R&S® ZS129S4: 1-out-of-2, DC to 3 GHz, unused inputs terminated into 50 Ω
