Mini-Circuits’ ZTM-15 comprises 6 independently controlled, electro-mechanical SP6T switches. Each switch operates over a wide bandwidth, from DC to 12 GHz, with high isolation and low insertion loss. The absorptive switches are of a failsafe / normally open and break-before-make-configuration with a lifetime of 10 million switching cycles when used within the noted specifications.
The switch system is housed in a rugged 19” rack chassis, 3U height, with all SMA (f) RF connectors and LED switch position indicators on the front panel. The modular design of the ZTM series switch rack supports easy maintenance and re-configuration in the field, without the need to return the whole system to a Mini-Circuits facility.
The switches are controlled via USB or Ethernet, allowing control directly from a PC, or remotely over a network. Full software support is provided, including our user-friendly GUI application for Windows and a full API with programming instructions for Windows and Linux environments (both 32-bit and 64-bit systems).
Custom switch configurations can be configured to fit any requirement, using Mini-Circuits’ online configurator tool at www.minicircuits.com/WebStore/ztm.html.
