8401-8E Butler Matrix by Weinschel by Spectrum Control
The 8401-8E from Weinschel by Spectrum Control is an 8×8 Butler Matrix that operates from 2.4 to 7.25 GHz. This butler matrix can handle an RF input power of 37 dBm and has a VSWR of 1.8:1. It has an output phase accuracy of up to ±20°, an isolation of 20 dB and an insertion loss of 13.5 dB. This 8×8 butler matrix transfers the signal reciprocally from any of the 8 input ports to any of the 8 output ports with a phase accuracy of ±20°. It is available in an enclosure that measures 508 x 425.2 x 43.7 mm and has SMA female connectors. This butler matrix is suitable for 5G RF MIMO, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth applications, and the addition of programmable attenuators allows easy degradation of the channel number for throughput vs channel testing.
