Overview
The Giga-tronics ASCOR Series 8000 has a
flexible and versatile design making it an ideal platform for
standard and tailored switching solutions and RF Interface Units (RFIUs).
It is geared to control any of the various switch types and enable
them to be mounted on the front or rear panel or host switching and
signal conditioning components internally. The standard Series 8000
offers GPIB or Ethernet (LAN) communication interfaces. It is a
self-contained system, with built-in power supplies, interface
controller, and relay drivers.
Series 8000 signal routing solutions are designed and built to
customer specifications to match specific requirements for DC, RF/microwave,
and optical applications and can be controlled via GPIB (IEEE-488)
or LAN. Giga-tronics' custom design capabilities allow system
specifiers to define the key design parameters within their
applications.
To build Giga-tronics' signal routing solutions we combine proven
Giga-tronics' switch expertise with a wide array of relays and other
components sourced from the industry's leading suppliers. This
flexibility to choose the best RF/Microwave and optical components
for the application, regardless of the supplier, means there's no
compromise on system performance.
