RLC Electronics, Inc. has recently launched a new SP9T/SP10T higher power handling switch series. These switches operate from DC-6 GHz (min.) and will handle upwards of 150W cW (previous designs limited power to 75W cW). Units exhibit low loss (0.25 dB), high isolation (> 70 dB) and are designed to operate in severe environmental conditions. Switch to RLC for your electromechanical switch needs, from DC-65 GHz, SP2T-SP12T.
The SP11T Terminated Switch is a high-reliability RF coaxial switch engineered specifically for the demanding environments encountered in modern launch vehicle systems. Designed to provide precise signal routing with exceptional isolation and insertion loss, the SP11T configuration enables a single RF input to be selectively connected to one of eleven terminated output paths, ensuring unused channels remain properly matched and protected from unwanted reflections.
Built for aerospace and defense applications, the switch is optimized for operation in harsh launch conditions including extreme vibration, mechanical shock, rapid thermal transitions, and high-altitude environments. The SP11T switch supports broadband RF and microwave frequency ranges with low insertion loss and high repeatability, making it ideal for mission-critical signal distribution and redundancy management.
RLC Electronics is manufacturing 13-section C-Band Notch (Band Reject) Filters for a UAV application. The reject band is >100dB and we utilize the gold screws on top of the unit to tune the notch bandwidth into specification. Insertion Loss is typically less than 1dB and Power handling on this model is 50W cW. In general, RLC can support notch filter requirements up to 40 GHz. These filters are characterized by having the reverse properties of band pass filters and are offered in multiple topologies, in both connectorized and surface mount packages.
