SPnT Coaxial Subminiature Switches DC to 6 GHz, DC to 26.5 GHz, DC to 40 GHz

R591 RADIALL coaxial subminiature switches have a typical operating life exceeding 25 million cycles. Excellent RF & repeatability

characteristics along with a guaranteed life of 10 million cycles make these switches ideal for Automated Test Equipment (ATE) and

other measurement applications. These miniature switches are also an excellent choice for Mil/Aero applications due to their small

size, light weight, as well as outstanding shock and vibration handling capabilities.

PART NUMBER SELECTION

(1) The “QLF” tradermark (quick lock formula®) standard applies to QMA and QN series and guarantees the full

intermateability between suppliers using this tradermark.Using QLF certified connectors also guarantees the

specified level of RF performances.

(2) Connector SMA2.9 is equivalent to “K Connector®”, registered trademark of Anritsu

(3) Available with “solder pins “ models only

(4) Polarity is not relevant to application for switches with TTL driver

(5) Suppression diodes are already included with TTL option

POWER RATING CHART

This graph is based on the following conditions :

- Ambient temperature : + 25°C

- Sea level

- V.S.W.R. : 1 and cold switching

DERATING FACTOR VERSUS V.S.W.R.

The average power input must be reduced for load V.S.W.R. above 1.
