RLC Switches A coaxial switch is used to alter the path of coaxial transmission line by either opening or closing it, or changing its direction

The coaxial switch is used in the microwave field due to the inherent properties of the structure, which has high isolation and low loss energy transmission, over extremely wide bandwidth. These characteristics plus high RFI and EMI shielding make them ideal for all types of systems such as antenna switching, receiver and many more communication applications

There are many parameters involved to fully specify a coaxial switch. Listed below are more important ones:

Frequency range
VSWR
Insertion loss
Isolation
Switching time
Operating mode

Failsafe
Latching
Indicators
TTL control circuit
Arc suppression diodes
