R574012300

Overview

The R574012300 is a single-pole triple-throw (SP3T) terminated coaxial RF switch from the Ramses series by Radiall USA, Inc. It operates within a frequency range of DC to 3 GHz and utilizes N-type connectors. The device functions as a normally open switch with termination capabilities. It requires a 12 Vdc supply voltage for operation and features indicator pins for status monitoring. The component is housed in a module package designed for reliable high-frequency signal routing.

Feature Summary

• Single-pole triple-throw (SP3T) configuration for signal routing
• Terminated design for improved impedance matching
• Normally open switching state
• Integrated indicator pins for operational status

Applications

• RF signal distribution systems
• Test and measurement equipment
• Telecommunications infrastructure
• Aerospace and defense radar systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector type and voltage requirements against system specifications before procurement. Confirm that the 12 Vdc supply aligns with available power rails. Ensure the module package dimensions fit the intended enclosure. Check for any required accessories or mounting hardware specified in the official datasheet to guarantee proper installation and performance.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a SP3T topology is required for frequencies up to 3 GHz. The N-type interface suits applications needing robust mechanical connections. The terminated design reduces reflections compared to non-terminated variants. Consider the 12 Vdc control requirement when designing the drive circuitry. Evaluate the module form factor against space constraints in the final assembly.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Ramses series of RF switches, which are engineered for high-performance applications. The series offers various configurations including different throw counts and connector types. The R574012300 specifically addresses needs for N-type interfaces and 3 GHz bandwidth. It complements other Ramses models that may offer higher frequencies or different pinout arrangements.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official cross-reference lists for direct substitutes. Verify that alternative parts match the SP3T topology, N-type connectors, and 3 GHz frequency limit. Ensure compatible control voltages and termination characteristics. Validate mechanical footprint compatibility if board space is constrained.
