CX-3
CXG SERIES DC to 700 MHz COAXIAL MATRIX
CYTEC's CXG Series of coaxial tree switch matrices
are available as 4x8 or 8x8 nonblocking congura-
tions in 50 or 75 ohm characteristic impedance.
The tree switch topology shown in Fig. 7, provides
excellent attenuation and crosstalk specications
from DC to 700 MHz. The use of electro-mechanical
relays make these systems completely bidirectional
and capable of hot switching signals up to 24 watts.
50 ohm systems are available with BNC, SMA or
other user specied connectors. 75 ohm systems
are available with BNC or SMB connectors. Any of
CYTEC's standard control modules may be speci-
ed as well as the MC/2 Keypad manual control.

CXF SERIES FULL FANOUT 5-500MHz COAXIAL MATRIX
This system is a nonblocking (any input to any output), full fan out (any input to any or all outputs), 50
ohm coaxial switch matrix available in 4x8 or 8x8 congurations as shown in Fig. 8. Larger congura-
tions can be supplied using multiple Expansion Chassis and a MESA Control Chassis. Systems are built
with BNC or SMA as standard connectors. Other connector styles available on request. The matrix has
LED visual display of latched switch paths and is available with any of the standard control modules.
