Description

The PE7142 is a Single Pole Double Throw Electromechanical Relay Switch that operates from DC to 18 GHz and can handle

up to 85 Watts of CW input power in a Break before Make condition. This design features a Failsafe Actuator and is rated

for 1M Life Cycles. Insertion loss is specified from 0.2 dB max and Isolation from 80 dB min, with +9 Vdc operating voltage.

Performance is guaranteed over -40 deg C to +85 deg C, and the switch assembly is RoHS and REACH compliant. The

package interface uses solder terminals and SMA female connectors.
