Product Overview

Multi-Purpose Solution The TDK RF Solutions SI-300 controller is a multi-purpose system interface designed for manual or computer controlled EMC test systems. The SI-300 provides a user-friendly method for controlling field sensors, turntables, masts, probe positioners, local and remote switch modules, and our line of color video cameras.

Flexibility The SI-300 can be a rack mounted or stand alone unit. The SI-300 rear panel can be configured to contain either up to 4 fiber optic audio or video receivers with a 1 to 4 distribution card or up to 4 RF switches, depending on your application.

Fiber Optic Links Non-intrusive fiber optic links control the remote devices, eliminating the interference that may be associated with conventional control cabling.
