Customize your test system
with 2 mainframes and 19 modules
Test engineers want "just enough" testing and do not
want to pay extra for something they do not plan to use
immediately. The 2 mainframes and 19 modules allow
you to customize the HP 3499 switch and control
system to meet your unique requirements. Buy only
what you need - and add more modules later as your
application grows.
The HP 3499 family allows the user to select a cost-
effective configuration for specific applications. Newly
designed high density switch modules reduce cost by
compacting a large number of channels on a single
module. The HP 3499A contains 5 slots that can
accommodate up to 200 channels switching for those
large switching applications on the manufacturing floor.
The HP 3499B contains 2 slots for switching up to 80
channels, a cost-effective solution for small
manufacturing or desktop applications. Both units are
designed for easy installation in a standard rack.
Use high-density modules or multifunction modules to
save money and space
HP 3499 family provides modules that contain up to 40
switching channels per module. This will greatly reduce
the per channel cost and save rack and floor space. Test
engineers can set up the test system with fewer
modules using less space and also reduce the cost and
complexity of the test system. The result is that users
spend less money without sacrificing performance and
quality.
Two multifunction modules are also introduced along
with the HP 3499 family. The N2264A includes 12
general purpose relay channels, 3 high current general
purpose relay channels, and 16 bits of digital I/O. The
N2265A combines a 4x4 matrix switch with 16 bits of
digital I/O on one module. With HP 3499B, users can
configure a small but versatile switching/control test
system. The 3 power relay channels in N2264A can
switch signals up to 5 A. These power relays are very
useful in test systems such as cellular phone test,
battery test and UPS test where only two or three high
current channels are required.
Easy wiring with versatile module connection
accessories
We understand that wiring requires a lot of your time
and energy, and the HP 3499 switching products have
been designed to make it easier for you. The HP 3499
family provides two connection accessories to minimize
your wiring time and effort. Both the removable screw
terminal blocks and crimp & insert terminal blocks are
detachable from the switching modules, eliminating the
need for rewiring the connector if a switching module
is replaced.
The six high-density modules use industry standard
DIN96 connectors for better flexibility. The modules
are equipped with DIN96-to-D50(25) cables for easy
connection to the DUT and test instruments. Using
these cables, you have completely eliminated all wiring.
