The Quintech MRM-1000 is a broadband RF matrix switch and switching subsystem that allows any of 4 to 128 inputs carrying broadband (20-1000 MHz) RF signals to be routed to any of 4 to 128 outputs. The system utilizes patented stack-and-tier technology which offers ultra-reliable, high-performance, in a compact, modular design. This greatly reduces the size and complexity of the system while greatly enhancing the system's reliability by eliminating the need for patch panels and repetitive mechanical connections. The system is controllable either locally via the front panel keypad or remotely via computer and is compatible with most monitoring and control systems. The rear panel design facilitates structured cable routing, thereby eliminating confusing tangles and bundles of cables.
