The MTRAN (Transfer) is a four port switch with two independent pairs of RF paths. These pairs are actuated simultaneously. This actuation is similar to that of a double–pole–double– throw switch. They have an operating temperature range -54°C to +85°C. It is designed for use in 50 Ohms coaxial transmission lines operating up to maximum 18GHz.
Latching and Failsafe switching modes are available. In a latching switch, the switch remains in the position set by the input control voltage when power is removed. In the failsafe switch, removal of the control voltage results in the switch returning to the selected (failsafe) or default position. Other options include position indicator contacts and choices of connectors. See Model Numbering System for other options.
