The ARK7083 Series V/UHF Switching Matrix are active, non-blocking switching matrices covering the frequency range 20MHz to 1000MHz. The units can be provided with up to eight inputs and sixteen outputs, with each output having independent access to any input, irrespective of the number of outputs being connected to the same input (‘non-blocking’).

The equipment is housed in a 19 inch rackmounting chassis, which contains the RF modules. The equipment can be controlled remotely via a standard data interface.

The matrix has been designed for use in a ground benign environment, typically being installed in a 19 inch rack cabinet as part of a large V/UHF Receiving System.

The matrix unit comprises high reliability solid state amplifier, power splitter and switch stages, constructed as easily identifiable and replaceable modules.

To accommodate larger system requirements, multiple units can be configured to achieve a larger capacity switching system.
