System MS2102A is a high performance DC-18GHz coaxial multiplexer matrix designed for high reliability, very low MTTR, and is available in configurations from 1x10 to 1x100 (or dual 1x50) in an efficient & compact 2RU unit.
Intended for automating manual patch cords, or replace bulky and dated competitive products, this unit is designed for switching any coaxial signal within the DC-18GHz frequency. Our proprietary high reliability relay element coupled with our elegant and sophisticated rack-mount packaging gives you the performance and maintainability you demand.
NOTE: Although it is available in standard configurations, the internal design construction makes it simple to build for custom or special requirements. Our technical staff can help configure the exact system to meet your specific application. Contact the factory.

Sizes 1x10 to 1x100 (or Dual 1x50) - Low MTTR
Detailed Description
Enhancing ATE systems and satellite monitoring, the System MS2102A is a compact high-performance modular switch multiplexer specifically designed for routing any coaxial signal within the DC-18GHz bandpass. Configurations are available from 1x10 to 1x100 (or dual 1x50), and custom configurations are a simple to accomplish. The 100 ports are normally open (reflective) when not routed. For a self-terminating version of this unit, please see Model MS2103A.
Enjoy the known benefits of mechanical relay elements without worry of relay-life, or hassle of maintenance. Our proprietary high reliability relay element coupled with our elegant and sophisticated rack-mount design gives you the performance and maintainability you demand. Built-in coil current monitoring and individual relay actuation logs provide health and usage data for preventative maintenance planning. A relay element can be replaced while the unit is in use, and in about 1-2 minutes with just a screwdriver delivering low MTTR (Mean Time To Repair).
The 2RU rack mount unit provides user connectivity with SMA signal connectors at the rear of the unit. The front panel includes a color touchscreen display with user friendly menu driven operation to configure or control the unit locally. The display may be pass-code locked to prevent unintentional operation.
The unit is configured with a plug-in CPU (behind the hinged front panel) that includes an LXI 10/100/1G Ethernet port (with web browser) and a muli-serial port (RS-232C, RS-422A & RS-485). Control connections are at the rear panel. Self-monitoring hot-swap plug-in power supplies (behind the hinged front panel) are optional with an independent and redundant design. See the model number assignmen on our specification sheet. The unit has a single AC power input designed for any international AC power source.
The MS2102A units are delivered complete, 100% tested, and ready for installation & integration. The following items are included:
