RF Switch Matrix Systems

ETL Systems provides a comprehensive range of RF switch matrices for seamless signal management and optimal performance in satellite communications. These switch matrices are suitable for every application, with capacities ranging from 4×4 to 256×256 and beyond, including multi-module systems. The products are designed to handle both distributive fan-out and combining fan-in configurations, ensuring efficient signal management. They offer wide frequency coverage, including IF, L, and Ka-band ready options, and flexible configurations with configurable input/output options, including direct fibre input/output (range dependent). ETL’s RF routers are equipped with the latest secure communications protocols, including HTTPS and SNMPv3, and feature fully hot-swappable components like RF cards, CPUs, and PSUs for easy maintenance and future expandability. The range emphasizes reliability with local and remote M&C capabilities, parts redundancy (including PSUs and CPUs), and resilient design where isolated RF cards only affect a single input/output port in case of failure (product dependent). Automated switching in the event of signal path failure is also available for some products. Specialist features such as fibre input/output, LNB powering, variable gain, and low noise are available, and software expansion options allow for future-proofing and cost efficiency. ETL’s equipment is engineered for reliable RF performance, with expert engineers designing and manufacturing systems tailored to specific requirements, ensuring unmatched scalability, reliability, and performance.
