Data Sheet

The NI PXI-2599 is a dual single-pole double-throw (SPDT) relay switch module for routing RF or microwave signals in automated test applications. While designed to operate with less than 1 dB insertion loss up to 26.5 GHz, the PXI-2599 appears almost invisible to signals at much lower frequencies as well. Use this module for basic signal routing or inserting and removing components in a signal path. The PXI-2599 is also well-suited for passing high-order harmonics from RF upconverters, such as the NI PXIe-5673 6.6 GHz RF signal generator, or routing multiple sources to RF downconverters, such as the NI PXIe-5663 6.6 GHz RF signal analyzer.
