The SDMX50SP is one of three 50 ohm, coaxial, 8:1 multiplexers that can be used in a TDR100-based system. It consists of a surge-protected multiplexer circuit board enclosed in a metal housing and a separate strain-relief bracket. Both the multiplexer housing and strain relief bracket have holes drilled at a 1” spacing. This allows the SDMX50SP to be mounted onto a wall or attached to the backplate of a user-supplied enclosure or Campbell Scientific enclosure (e.g., ENCTDR100, ENC12/14, ENC16/18).

In applications where TDR probes are used to measure soil water content, the maximum distance from the TDR probe back to the TDR100/TDR200 (even through one or more multiplexers) cannot exceed 15 m (50 ft) when using RG58 coaxial cable; the CS605-L, CS630-L, and CS640-L TDR probes have an RG58 cable. When using low-loss coaxial cable, the distance cannot exceed ≈25 m (80 ft); the CS610-L, CS635-L, and CS645-L TDR probes have a low-loss coaxial cable.
In slope stability and rock mass deformation applications, the maximum coaxial cable length should not exceed ≈1 mile (5,280 ft). The maximum combined length of all SDM cables in the system should not exceed ≈76 m (250 ft).
These three multiplexers all use the same relay board, but the housing differs. The multiplexers are described side-by-side on page 2 of this brochure.
The most popular model is the SDMX50SP, followed by the SDMX50.
