The part number 778572-41 refers to the NI PXI-2541 Expandable 8x12 RF Matrix Switch Module by National Instruments. This RF Signal Switching Matrix is ideal for high channel applications and allows for easy expansion by combining multiple PXI-2541 modules to create larger switching networks, such as 8x24 or 8x36. The PXI-2541 supports column expansion, enabling the Row Out connectors of one module to be connected to the Row-In connectors of another. The impact on insertion loss when cascading modules is minimized when using the appropriate link part number. This model offers reliable performance with insertion loss below 2.1 dB and separation exceeding 75 dB at 300 MHz. The PXI-2541 features reed relays that are susceptible to damage from capacitive and inductive loads, but proper protection can extend their lifespan. While the PXI-2541 has entered the maintenance phase, Apex Waves will continue to buy, sell, and repair EOL NI hardware, including the PXI-2541. Contact us for a quote today!
