CT Series Coaxial A/B Switching System

The CTC and CTA Series are computer controlled chassis that hold from 16 to 64 passive, bi-directional coaxial A/B switches. Single ended, 50 and 75 ohms impedance switches are offered that have a bandpass of DC to over 1 GHz, while two-wire switches have a bandpass of DC to up to 400 MHz. Connector options include BNCs, SMAs, Twin Ax and Triax, however, all connectors are not available on every switch module. RS232 & IEEE488 controls are standard, while Ethernet, USB and front panel Manual Controls are optionally available. The CTC chassis hold Form C Normally Closed 2x1 switches, while the CTA hold Normally Open types.
