QRM
QRM System • 16x16 RF matrix switch in a compact 1RU design – Modular Design is easily Expandable to 32x32
• The QRM operating frequencies available in “IF” 50-200 MHz, Broadband 50-1000 MHz, or L Band 950-2150 MHz • Fan-out, splitting with up to +16 dB gain
Features & Benefits • Best in class return loss (14 dB) and noise figure (18 dB) – All ports individually tuned for 50Ω and 75Ω impedance matching
• Highest power handling with no signal compression (P1dB > +2 dBm) • Designed for high reliability and uptime – Redundant power supplies – QRoute
QRM Panels Front Panel
Rear Panel
QSense • External Signal Path Redundancy by Automatic Switching of Back-up Input Signals A back-up input signal can be designated for each output. For example in the illustration input 7 is the backup input. In the event of failed input signal a backup input signal automatically replaces the failed signal
QRoute • Internal Signal Path Redundancy by Automatically Re-routing Around a Failed Signal Path
Lightning Protection • Exchangeable gas capsules • <0.3 dB insertion loss • Ingress protection rating: IP65 – Telecom compliant
• Surge current handling: 30 single/ 20 multiple kA
