ETL Systems Swift SWF-G1S-KX-109A 1+1 DC–18 GHz RF Redundancy Switch Module

ETL Systems Swift SWF-G1S-KX-109A 1+1 DC–18 GHz RF Redundancy Switch Module

The ETL Systems Swift SWF-G1S-KX-109A provides 1+1 redundancy switching for Falcon frequency converters in a compatible 1U GENUS chassis, with a DC–18 GHz path and a DC–6 GHz path. Supporting one active converter and one standby converter, this hot-swappable module occupies four chassis slots and offers local touchscreen control and remote operation through the parent chassis.
