Specification Sheet SS244-001

High Performance Full Fanout IF Switching

CE

System SS244 Sizes 8x8 to 32x32

General Applications

The SS244 switching systems are specifically designed for high performance switching and distributing IF signals in the demanding 20-200MHz band. They are part of our G2 family of products, include many advanced features and they are available in 50 or 75 ohm versions. The SS244 units are designed to provide excellent IF signalperformance with consideration for low crosstalk isolation, low noise figure, low gain flatness and high intercept specifi- cations. These field proven rugged units are both compact and cost-effective. They provide the systems engineer with one of the best integrated solutions for reliably routing IF sig- nals for critical applications. A given input can be connect- ed to one, many or up to all outputs at the same time (full fanout).Built-in features include redundant hot-swap power supplies,integrated rack mounting plus a powerful command and status protocol (488.2 compliant). With a global installation base, they are considered the next generation of switching systems to meet today’s and tomorrow’s needs for high per- formance and cost effective IF switching. The advanced and sophisticated features of the SS244 systems allows them to be used in numerous applications:

Ground stations Uplink or downlink signal routing Base installations Communication centers Satellite installations
