The XSM-019-2816-10G/30G-100 is a high-speed, USB and ethernet controlled RF cross-bar switch matrix, specifically designed for versatile and dynamic routing of RF signals. With a full cross-bar architecture, the XSM-019-2816-10G/30G-100 can switch any of its 8 common ports to any of the 16 I/O ports, offering unparalleled flexibility in routing and signal distribution. This solid-state matrix enables bi-directional RF paths over a broad frequency range of 16 kHz to 10 GHz (or up to 30 GHz), maintaining minimal insertion and return loss. Each port is internally DC-blocked and capable of handling up to 16V, making it durable and resilient for demanding RF environments.

In contrast to mechanical switching solutions, the XSM-019-2816-10G/30G-100 solid-state design ensures each port is permanently matched to 50 ohms, including unselected ports, providing exceptional impedance matching ideal for vector network analyser (VNA) extension applications. The module also integrates a precision-controlled internal oven, which can sustain stability over time, limiting signal drift to less than 0.02 dB, with near-zero drift and exceptional repeatability.
