The RR8-HP uses a star arrangement of 16 relays to select 8 output ports when voltage is applied from an 8-wire control line. The 16 relays provide improved power handling, much better port-to-port isolation and SWR performance over conventional 8-relay switches and allow selection of multiple output port connections between any of the eight output ports. The RR8-HP has virtually no loss at HF and excellent low-loss performance at VHF with less than 0.25 dB loss at 150 MHz
- Power Rating: 7kW ICAS, 5kW CCS all modes with SWR of 2:1 or less.
- Control Voltage: 10-14 Vdc at 100 mA
- Port-to-Port Isolation: >70 dB below 30 MHz, >60 dB below 60 MHz, >45 dB below 150 MHz
