The EX1200-4265 is a high-density matrix module which allows the user to connect any input row to any output column with a DPST relay at every row/column crosspoint. This architecture provides the framework for flexible switch system designs where multiple test instruments need to be connected to common test points. It includes a bypass circuit which allows crossover connections that make this very ideal for cable test and characterization applications.
Using this switch card along with necessary measurement instruments, users will be able to characterize cable voltage drop, timing (rise time, fall time), noise (differential, common mode, ground noise) as well as impedance, isolation and continuity, not just specific pin to pin, but any pin to any pin.
Relays capable of switching up to 300 V and up to 2 A are used to maximize the range of application spaces that can be addressed with this module.
