The SM7000 Series microwave switching modules are members of the VXI Technology SMIPII™ family. They offer a modular design allowing custom switching configurations to be easily assembled and modified in the field. 

The SM7000 is a single-wide, C-size VXI module, which can support up to six different microwave switches including: a dual SPDT; SP3T through SP6T; transfer switches and passthrough adapters that allow the module to control up to eight externally mounted relays each.

Coaxial cable assembly suitable for fixed wiring inside and between equipment used in the microwave band up to 100GHz (continuous operating temperature range: -30 to +85°C).

These cables have excellent formability (shape-retention capability) that make wiring work easy and exhibit superior loss characteristics compared to semi-rigid cables.

Standard connectors are SMA (m) straight connectors, although other connectors can be used as required.

Southwest Microwave’s high performance End Launch Connectors are designed to provide low VSWR, mode-free wide responses up to 125 GHz for single and multilayer microstrip or grounded coplanar printed circuit boards. Available in SMA (27 GHz), 2.92 mm (40 GHz), 2.40 mm (50 GHz), 1.85 mm (67 GHz) and 1.0 mm (125 GHz).

Male and female options along with narrow body and bulkhead feed-through. Unique clamping mechanism accommodates board thickness up to .300” (7.62 mm). Robust, reusable and repairable. Multiple launch configurations provide the best possible match to circuit layout. Works on microstrip and grounded coplanar waveguide (GCPW) designs. Signal-layer microstrip and GCPW test boards available. Soldering is optional.
