CYTEC's VDM Series Switching Systems are based on a solid state switch fabric and are

available in nonblocking, full fan-out configurations from 8x8 to 32x32, with a small signal

bandpass to over 400 MHz. Input and output buffers are added to the basic switch fabric

allowing a broad range of both 75 and 50 ohm coaxial or two wire signals to be switched.

Control is via the new IF-8 Control Module, which supplies RS232, IEEE488, and Ethernet

remote controls.

VDM CHASSISVDM CHASSIS

VDM CHASSIS

The VDM Chassis are standard 19" rack mount with

RS232, IEEE488 Control and Ethernet Controls. These

sold state systems are nonblocking and full fanout. Any

input connects to any or even all outputs. BNC Input

and Output connectors are standard, while other con-

nectors such as SMA or Twinax are also offered. Small

signal bandpass is DC to over 400 MHz, while crosstalk

is better than -60 dB at 50 MHz.

The following chassis are available

VDM/32x32 Mainframe- 5.25" high and 15.6 " depth

Configured from an 8x8 to 32x32 Matrix

VDM/32x32-E Expansion Chassis - is used to build

larger systems. Multiple VDX Chassis can be controlled from

one MESA II Control Chassis shown as in the MESA Bulle-

tin.

CONTROL OPTIONSCONTROL OPTIONS

CONTROL OPTIONS

IF-8 IEEE488, RS232 & ETHERNET LAN

These controls are standard. All interfaces may be active

and in use simultaneously. Setup information is stored in

NVRAM, which also allows the system to be configured for

various matrix addressing conbinations which are then remem-

bered. The IF-8 may be removed without affecting the switch

state. However, installing the IF-8 will cause the system to

clear and reset.

MC-2 Keypad Manual Control

This optional front panel control includes a keypad and LCD

Display. The operator can open, close and verify the status of

any switch point.

Modular Design - System can be configured in in-

crements from 8x8 to 32x32 matrix sizes.

Systems are designed for single ended 50 or 75 ohm

coaxial as well as two wire pairs.

Different Buffer Modules provide for impedance

transformation (e.g., 50 to 75 ohms) and balanced to

unbalanced signals.

Input and Output Buffer Modules are hot-swappable.

Control via IEEE488, RS232 & Ethernet all standard.

Firmware upgrades can be downloaded from Cytec's

web site.
