The present invention relates to a device for switching an RF signal. It also relates to a transmit and receive module comprising such a switch. The device includes at least one branch linking a first pole to a second pole, a branch comprising a conducting line coupled to a reference potential, it comprises at least one Gallium Nitride (GaN) semi-conductor elementary switch, for example a transistor, linking the line to the reference potential, the RF signal propagating along the line when the semi-conductor is driven to the on state. In the transmit and receive module, the device links the transmit pathway and the receive pathway to an antenna. The invention applies notably in transmit and receive modules of airborne systems operating in a broad band of frequencies or in a narrow band.
