System
RSX4

System RSX4 is a modular high reliability product specifically designed for redundancy switching in a 1RU package.

High value communication assets require redundant (backup) systems. The RSX4 redundancy switchers provide an automated method of providing this function. Under program control, manual, or direct alarm input, this unit provides redundancy switching for single, dual, or up to quad channels. Plug in elements (PUCs) are available for a variety of digital and analog signals including ASI, IF, L-Band and others up to 18GHz, and some options to 50GHz..

These PUC elements can also be located a distance from the main RSX4 chassis to minimize your signal cabling. Simply add an extension cable.

NOTE: Although it is available in standard configurations, the design construction makes it simple to build for custom or special requirements. Our technical staff can help configure the exact system to meet your specific application. Contact the factory.

    The RSX4 Redundancy Switch unit provides backup selections for signals as high as 50GHz, but designed typically for L-Band through X-Band signals. This product delivers ultra-high signal performance coupled with advanced remote/manual control and monitoring. Ethernet port, serial port, front panel control, and alarm input port, and auto-sense (on some PUC's) are all standard methods of control.

    Designed specifically for ENG trucks, critical installations, and for the general satellite/communications industry, the 1RU high rack mount unit can be controlled remotely, at the front panel, or direct alarm input. The unit provides redundancy switching for single, dual, or up to quad channels. Plug-ins are available for a variety of digital and analog signals including ASI, IF, L-Band and others up to 50GHz. Plug-ins can be mixed and matched as needed.

    The unit includes redundant power supplies with dual power inputs (AC or AC/DC). The manual controls may be locked to prevent unintentional operation. Self-monitoring power supplies are standard with an independent and redundant design. The unit has an international AC power input designed for any international AC power source, and an optional wide-range DC power input is available.
