Fairview Intros New VNA Test Cables
Allen, TX — New from Fairview Microwave is a family of flexible 50 and 67 GHz VNA test cables. These highly durable assemblies are designed for use as VNA test port extenders and are able to withstand the rigors of the test lab where cables are constantly flexed and torqued during testing. According to the company,
its new lines of high frequency VNA test cables display excellent electrical properties such as phase stability of ±6° at 50 GHz and ±8° at 67 GHz as well as VSWR of 1.3:1 at 50 GHz and 1.4:1 at 67 GHz. The 50 GHz assemblies are terminat- ed with 2.4 mm (0.094 in.) connec- tors, while the 67 GHz versions use 1.85 mm (0.073 in.) connectors. The braided stainless steel armoring sur- rounding the coax provides a rugged but flexible cable with a flex life exceeding 100,000 cycles, making them appropriate for use in semicon- ductor probe testing, precise bench- top testing as well as lab/production
testing where the need for a highly flexible, yet durable cable solution is required. The VNA test cables are also
equipped with rugged stainless steel connectors that provide up to 5,000 mating cycles when attached with
VNA test cables.
proper care. In addition, the flexibili- ty of these cables makes it easier and safer to test a device. Swept right angle 2.4 or 1.85 mm (0.094 or 0.073 in.) connector options allow the cables to fit in tight spaces and can reduce the length of cable required in
many applications. Contact: Fairview Microwave,

VTI Instruments Launches Line of PXIe Switch Modules
Irvine, CA — VTI Instruments, a part of AMETEK Programmable Power, has introduced its Sentin elEX PXIe (PXI express) switching series, the latest addition to its Sentinel PXIe test and measurement suite. The new switch modules provide more than 30 times better isolation than compara- ble modules, greatly improving over- all performance and allowing test sys- tem engineers to maximize the per- formance of a system’s measurement instrumentation. By reducing the false pass/fail errors often associated with marginal signal levels, PXIe switch modules improve test system performance and reduce testing costs. The PXIe switching series in -

cludes 11 multiplexer modules, 4 ma - trix modules, 2 general- purpose switching modules, 1 power switching module, 16 RF multiplexer modules, 2 RF matrix modules, and 11 microwave switching modules. They are compatible with 18- and 9-slot 3U
PXIe mainframes and a 4-slot portable PXI-hybrid mainframe, as well as digitizer, arbitrary waveform generator, programmable resistor, digital I/O, em bed ded controller and remote controller modules, all includ- ed in the SentinelEX PXIe test and measurement suite. The switching series offers test
system builders exceptional perform- ance and reliability through the use of extensive signal path shielding, which helps reduce cross-talk and improve channel-to-channel isola- tion. The ability to personalize the switch using software, combined with comprehensive, on-board health monitoring, reduces system-level
development and support costs. Contact: AMETEK Programmable Power, 9250 Brown
