R573402400

Overview

The R573402400 is a general-purpose SP4T coaxial switch from the Ramses series by Radiall. It operates within a frequency range of DC to 18GHz and features a 50 Ohm impedance. The device utilizes reflective topology and provides a minimum isolation of 60dB. It is designed for normally open operation with 12Vdc pin terminals.

Feature Summary

• SP4T circuit topology for signal routing
• Reflective switching architecture
• Integrated latching indicators

Applications

• RF signal distribution systems
• Test and measurement equipment
• Telecommunications infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify current availability status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors, as stock levels fluctuate. Confirm that the 12Vdc TTL diode input requirement aligns with system control logic. Ensure SMA connector compatibility with existing cabling assemblies before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when an 18GHz bandwidth and high isolation are required for SP4T applications. The 12Vdc drive voltage suits standard digital logic interfaces. Verify thermal management needs for continuous operation at maximum frequencies.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Ramses family of coaxial switches, which are engineered for high-performance RF applications. The series offers various configurations tailored for demanding environments requiring reliable signal switching across wide frequency bands.

Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other Ramses series models such as R573423400 or R573432420 if different voltage requirements or termination styles are needed. Ensure substitute parts maintain the same 18GHz frequency rating and SP4T topology.
