In switch and attenuator applications, PIN diodes control the radio frequency (RF) signal level without introducing distortion that might change the shape of the radio frequency signal. An important ...

RF diodes are designed to handle high-power radio frequency ... are used mainly in high-frequency and fast-switching applications. PIN diodes are used as either switches or attenuator elements.

Can you use a diode to switch a signal even if it has only two terminals? Of course you can, and it’s a tried and trusted technique very common in test equipment and circuits that handle RF signals.
