The versatile, high-performance VPX3-6826 Ethernet switch provides rugged Ethernet switching for the next generation of 3U systems. It is developed in alignment with the Sensor Open Systems Architecture™ (SOSA) Technical Standard to ensure interoperability with today’s latest VPX systems.
Backplane copper connectivity provides up to 24 ports of Data Plane and 7 or 8 ports of Control Plane Ethernet. Optional front-panel network ports add Control and Data Plane optical interfaces for simplified external connectivity. The VPX3-6826 high-performance architecture is suitable for low-latency, time-critical, and high-throughput data-centric applications.
The VPX3-6826 supports a complete suite of Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) features on its Control Plane, ideal for time-sensitive and deterministic traffic.
A fully managed multi-layer Ethernet switch and router, the VPX3-6826 supports an extensive range of network services including efficient multicast, flexible quality of service (QoS) and a range of security features. On-board management software provides a powerful command line interface (CLI), SNMP, and web-based options for configuration and monitoring.
Validated for deployment in the harshest environments, the VPX3-6826 is available in conduction-cooled L300 ruggedization with 2LM covers and is suitable for high-reliability embedded ground, naval, airborne, and commercial/industrial applications.
