FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Micronetics Introduces Miniature Electromechanical Switch Line for Communications Market.
The patent pending MSM1 series of switches are the smallest known electromechanical switches in the industry, measuring .83" x .37" before connector selection. The frequency range of the MSM1 series is from DC to 2.0 Ghz making them ideal for many wired and wireless RF communications applications. The MSM1 Switch offers among the fastest known switching speeds available today for switches of this type. They are also capable of being hermetically sealed, making the MSM1 a reliable and stable solution for specific industrial markets with applications in cable TV, high density matrices, aerospace, medical and instrumentation.
Charles Freihofer, Director of Sales for Micronetics Noise and Test Solutions Division, stated "The MSM1 series offers the marketplace a faster and smaller platform of electromechanical switching solutions. The new switch series will provide a low cost alternative to bulkier switches, while integrating some of the characteristics such as fail-safety found in mechanical switches, with high repeatability rates and speed found in solid state switches."
