NET/SWI/003

Ethernet switch (Xbar, SNMP, GPS, IRIG-B) - 8 port

Description

The NET/SWI/003 is a Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for operating in harsh environments. Each port on the NET/SWI/003 is full-duplex only and can be set for 10BaseT, 100BaseTX, 1000BaseT link speeds or auto-negotiate.

The NET/SWI/003 has a store-and-forward Xbar switching fabric that uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMPv2c) to configure user-defined static forwarding tables and filtering as defined in “RFC4188: Definitions of Managed Object for Bridges”. The Xbar static forwarding table defines how incoming Ethernet frames received on a given port are forwarded to the output of one or more egress ports, thereby allowing greater flexibility to forward Ethernet frames to any egress port from any ingress port.

The output of each port has filtering capabilities allowing for selective forwarding of Ethernet frames to the connected end node. The filter comprises a lookup table of up to 31 entries of destination multicast MAC address and outgoing Ethernet ports to which the filter may be applied. Moreover, the filter can be configured for pass or reject selection criteria.

The NET/SWI/003 does not retransmit Ethernet frames which are received with FCS (Frame Check Sequence) errors.

Features

  • Eight Gigabit Ethernet ports
  • Configurable 10/100/1000Mbps port speeds over copper wiring with auto-negotiation supporting straight-through or cross-over cables
  • Configurable Xbar static forwarding table
  • Configurable per port filtering of Ethernet frames based on destination multicast MAC address
  • Up to 31 filters can be defined with user-selectable filter pass/reject selection criteria
  • Embedded IEEE 1588v1 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Grandmaster and Transparency mode
  • GPS input and digital IRIG-B input and output
  • Industrial temperature operation (-40 to 85°C)
  • Live at power-up (configured static internal routing; no MAC address dynamic learning time delay)

Applications

  • Airborne interconnection for data acquisition units, network data recorders, network tap, network mirroring and redundancy, and onboard data processing stations in an Ethernet environment
