LXI switching matrices

LXI-compliant product range adds relay crosspoint matrix options for large-scale installations

Pickering Interfaces’ 60-600 is a high current capacity, 256-relay crosspoint matrix with a 10-A rating, capable of switching voltages up to 30 VDC or 250 VAC. A variety of matrix configurations spans 64x4 to 16x16, one pole. It is packaged in a compact full-rack-width 1-U enclosure using 8-way high-power D-Type connectors for both the X and Y axis connections.
The 60-552 is a very high density 4096-relay crosspoint matrix with a 2- rating capable of switching voltages up to 220 VDC or 250 VAC. The fully loaded version of the 60-552 comes as a 64x64 matrix, but partial x64 configurations are also available. It also occupies a 1-U full-rack-width enclosure but uses 78-0way D-Type connectors for the user connections. Loop-through connections permit the creation of larger matrices by using cabled connections between multiple 60-552 matrices.
