The Racal Instruments™ 1260-50 is ideal for switching wide-band signals up to
200 MHz. It is intended for use with function/pulse generators, universal counter/timers, oscilloscopes and other instruments where high frequency or fast pulsesignals are switched.
Product Information
The 1260-50C consists of eight 1x4 10W multiplexers and the 1260-50D consists of 16 1x4 50 Ω multiplexers. These multiplex- ers are bi-directional and reconfigurable via software. This makes reconfiguration easy and eliminates the need to disassemble the module. The coaxial connector housing (shell) is supplied with the 1260-50C/D. The con- nector pins must be purchased separately. Coaxial pins complete with cables for this module are also available. Coaxial cables have been tested up to a 1 GHz bandwidth and are available in 2, 6 and 12 foot lengths with a coaxial pin at each end. Relay coil currents are monitored to provide user selectable confidence checking, which gives the user additional assurance of pro- per relay operation. The 1260-50 is controlled by the Racal Instruments™ Option 01 message-based interface, or the Option 01T message- based and register-based interface, which are explained in detail in their respective data sheets. All 1260 control features explained on the data sheets are available to this module.
