ABSTRACT:
The following specification describes a magnetically operated lock for a coaxial switch in which slide member is operated in opposite directions by a slide magnet in a key to connect an incoming coax line to either another coax line or to ground through a characteristic impedance termination.
The key has a configuration corresponding to the lock housing and when associated with the lock housing, automatically positions a plurality of spaced magnets in the key to operate a plurality of pins in opposite directions to unlock the slide. Removal or disengagement of the key from the lock housing enables the pins in the lock to engage the slide and lock the switch in either position to which it is operated.
