The 65-218 is a modular platform that provides a large high voltage
matrix solution. It consists of a 65-200 scalable chassis which can be
populated with up to six 65-218 plugin matrix modules. The modules
are loaded into the front of the chassis giving the best flexibility and
ease of maintenance.
Each plugin module is a high voltage matrix with a carry current of
2 A plus higher pulse conditions - see specification table. The plugin
modules are 50x4 matrices and are available in the following types:
65-218-111 - no access to the chassis backplane and capable of cold
switching 750 VDC continuous. 65-218-101 - access to five separate
internal buses on the chassis backplane and limited to 400 VDC cold
switching. 65-218-121-CC - version with no backplane access and
1000 V cold switching.
The internal buses allow the Y connections of the matrix to be
interconnected to form larger matrix sizes. Six 65-218-101 plugin
modules in a 65-200 chassis can be linked to create a 300x4 matrix.

X and Y loop-thru connection on the plugin module's
front panel allow the linking of 50x4 matrices within
the same chassis or between adjacent chassis. This
allows easy matrix expansion in both the X and Y
directions.
Both types of plugin module have X isolation switches
between the matrix and the front panel connector. The
65-218-101 also has Y isolation switches for the front
panel connector and the six internal Y buses. Isolation
switches allow unused signal paths to be disconnected
to preserve signal integrity.
Configuring the Matrix
To select the parts that you need to create a matrix
simply:
• Specify a 65-200-002 LXI Scalable Chassis.
• Add Matrix Plugin Modules with or without chassis
internal Y-bus access as required.
Built-In Relay Self-Test - BIRST
The BIRST facility provides a quick and easy way of
finding relay failures. No test equipment is required,
simply unplug the front panel connectors, launch the
BIRST application and the tool will run a diagnostic
test that will find all relays with faulty contacts.

Supported by eBIRST
This matrix is also supported by eBIRST. These tools
simplify switching system fault-finding by quickly
testing the system and graphically identifying the
faulty relay.
