Pickering Interfaces is expanding its range of LXI compliant products with the introduction of two new matrix solutions. The 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. It can be supplied in a variety of matrix configurations from 64 x 4 to 16 x 16, one pole. The 60–600 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 A rating capable of switching voltages up to 220 VDC or 250 VAC. The fully loaded version of the 60–552 is supplied as a 64 x 64 matrix, but partial x 64 configurations are also available. Like the 60–600, the 60–552 is supplied in a compact 1 U full rack width enclosure but uses 78 way D type connectors for the user connections. Loop thru connections are provided to simplify the creation of even larger matrices by using cabled connections between multiple 60–552 matrices. These cables can be purchased from Pickering Interfaces.
David Owen, Business development manager for Pickering Interfaces commented “These matrices are part of our expanding range of large scale switching solutions available with LXI compliant control interfaces. LXI is proving to be an ideal platform for Pickering Interfaces to develop large switching systems that suit a wide variety of application. The form factor of the units permits the creation of systems that are easy to configure and simple to program.”
