R573493005

Overview

The R573493005 is a general-purpose RF switch manufactured by Radiall USA, Inc. It features an SP10T topology with a maximum operating frequency of 18 GHz and a characteristic impedance of 50 Ohms. The component utilizes SMA interface connectors and operates on a 28 Vdc supply. It is designed as a latching device with self-cut-off capabilities and includes auto-reset functionality. The unit is housed in a module package and is currently listed as an active product.

Feature Summary

• SP10T single-pole ten-throw switching topology
• Latching mechanism with self-cut-off design
• Auto-reset functionality for operational reliability
• Integrated status indicators

Applications

• RF signal routing in communication systems
• Test and measurement instrumentation
• Aerospace and defense electronic subsystems
• Industrial automation control circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the current production status directly with Radiall USA, Inc., as availability information may vary across distribution channels. Confirm that the specific SMA connector configuration and 28 Vdc actuation requirements align with the target system design before finalizing procurement orders to ensure compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-channel-count RF switching solution is required within the 18 GHz bandwidth. The latching feature eliminates continuous power consumption for state retention, while the self-cut-off design protects internal mechanisms. Ensure the host system supports the necessary 28 Vdc control voltage and D-sub connector interface for proper integration.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Ramses series of coaxial switches from Radiall. The series offers various configurations including SP6T and SP9T variants, catering to different channel count requirements. These switches are engineered for robust performance in demanding environments, often featuring space-qualified options and cryogenic interconnect solutions for specialized industrial applications.

Replacement Considerations

Consider the R573303905 (SP9T) or R573403510 (SP5T) if fewer output ports are sufficient for the application. Verify that alternative models maintain the same 18 GHz frequency rating and 28 Vdc actuation specifications to ensure seamless functional replacement without redesigning the control circuitry.
