General Purpose Switching

Built with standard relays these versatile workhorses use standard reed, armature, power armature, high voltage and low thermal relays to switch voltages up to 1000 volts and currents as high as 8 amps.

Network Switching

Built with RJ45 connectors these switches for Ethernet, LAN, WAN, RS422, USB, Telephony and DSL use mechanical relays to switch two to eight wires in any configuration: matrix, mux or failsafe.

Microwave Switching

Built with your choice of custom relays from your choice of vendors these systems are available with frequencies as high as 40 GHz.

Coaxial & RF Switching

Built with standard relays or solid state switches with high isolation these reliable switches for 50 or 75 ohm applications can switch up to 2 GHz. Fast, inexpensive solid state relays are perfect for coaxial switching at low power RF and CATV frequencies whereas mechanical relays can be used for more versatility.

High Voltage

These systems use high reliability high voltage reed relays for applications up to 5,000 VAC. Fast, high isolation reed relays are perfect for Hi-pot or IR testing.5 way binding post / banana jacks, shrouded banana jack or SHV safety connectors are available. Custom systems are available at higher voltages.

Digital Switching

Modular systems are capable of switching data rates to 3.2 Gbps NRZ. They are intended to switch RS422, ECL, PECL, LVDS, CML and virtually any type of digital data stream. Configurations as large as 128x128 Clock and Data systems can be easily configured.

Video Switching

Cytec's video switching systems are based on a solid state switch fabric and are available in non-blocking, full fan-out configurations of 8x8 to 128x128, with a small signal bandpass of 400MHz. Input and output buffers can be modified for different impedance or signal levels.

Multi-wire Switching

From 4 to 200 wires can be switched as a group and costs are kept low by reducing the number of drives needed. Group switches can be as simple as four coax modules driven in parallel for LCR meters or as complicated as 200 mixed signals of power, digital logic, communication and RF signals all switched as a group.

Low Leakage (< 1pA)

These switch modules use ultra high isolation reed relays. They allow measurements of resistances as high as 500 teraohms or current readings as low as 50 femto amps. Not intended for frequencies above 50 MHz or switched currents over 0.5 amps. BNC, Triax or Shrouded Banana Jack connector options.

Mesa Expansion Systems

The MESA Series Controllers make it possible to control several different CYTEC Expansion Chassis via a single control module. They are used to build large matrix or multiplexer configurations or simply run different types of expansion chassis.
