Pickering Interfaces has continued in 2011 to regularly release a steady flow of new products in both the LXI and the PXI platforms. According to Nick Hickford, Sales Manager UK and Ireland , “LXI enquiries have been particularly strong in the last 6 months as more and more users are realizing the benefits of this platform. These enquiries are leading to a steadily increasing number of switching solutions being made available by Pickering Interfaces and LXI is becoming an increasingly important part of our business model. But PXI is as usual an important part of our business and we are committed to continuing to expand our range of switching solutions using this platform, we consider PXI and LXI to be complimentary platforms that we will pursue in parallel, selecting the most appropriate platform for each application”.

Amongst a variety of products, these latest models deserve attention and will be shown at European Microwave Manchester in October:

First models in a new range of 6GHz switch solutions, these compact switch modules offer an alternative to mechanical microwave switches for applications up to 6GHz.
