It is almost impossible to exaggerate the importance of high speed networking in most embedded applications. Our Gigabit Ethernet cards are designed to relieve bandwidth bottlenecks and allow Gigabit Ethernet technology to be rapidly incorporated into CompactPC®, VMEbus, AdvancedTCA® and MicroTCA™ applications. We offer a number of form factors, including the new AdvancedMC modules, and a range of ruggedization levels from standard air cooled to fully rugged, conduction cooled models.

    Ethernet Switches

    Ethernet Switches

    As an unmatched assortment of Ethernet switches, not only is our product selection extensive, but the switches themselves provide maximum flexibility, performance, and density. We have experience with a broad range of application types, from telecom and networking to government and military. Based on the model you choose, we offer mixed copper and fiber front panel ports, and Fully Managed, Unmanaged and Managed switches.

    Fully Managed switches are Layer-2/3+ switches with control and monitoring capabilities via local or remote access. Managed switches are Layer-2 switches with control and monitoring capabilities via local or remote access. Unmanaged switches are Layer-2 switches with no operator interfacing and are designed for easy deployment in well defined applications.

        Reflective Memory

        Reflective Memory

        Reflective Memory networks are Real Time Local Area Networks in which each computer always has an up-to-date local copy of the shared memory set. These specialty networks are specifically designed to provide highly deterministic data communications. They deliver the tightly timed performance necessary for a variety of distributed simulation and industrial control applications. Reflective Memory networks have benefited from advances in general-purpose data networks, but they remain an entirely independent technology, driven by different requirements and catering to applications where determinism, implementation simplicity, and a lack of software overhead are key factors.
