Aitech Announces 10/40GbE Fully Managed Ethernet Switch/Router on XMC Form Factor. M622 enables high-speed connectivity solutions for military and aerospace platforms
Aitech Systems released the M622, a unique, highly innovative, fully managed 10GbE/40GbE Ethernet switch/router on an XMC. The M622 is designed for embedded and harsh environment applications with SWaP-C (size, weight, power, and cost) optimization in mind.
An order of magnitude bandwidth and capacity upgrade of Aitech’s M620, the M622 is based on an advanced and flexible Layer2/Layer3 (L2/L3) Ethernet switch and packet processor offering up to 320 Gbps of total wire-speed bandwidth. This innovative XMC solution provides ten/40GbE internal connectivity within any OpenVPX or SOSATM-aligned ruggedized embedded system between modern SBCs and other processing and I/O boards while enhancing SWaP-C throughout the system.
Alex Trigoub, Director of Board Level Product Line for Aitech, noted, “The XMC form factor is a highly beneficial way of implementing connectivity for modern military platforms utilizing a centralized digital backbone. However, existing solutions fail to meet the demand for high networking bandwidth, the number of Ethernet interfaces, and the required networking features and protocols. The M622 is a game-changer for current and future military and aerospace platforms that utilize high-resolution sensors/cameras and process large amounts of data using onboard A.I. systems and mission computers.”
Meeting the high-density and high-speed connectivity demands across mil-aero platforms, the M622 facilitates modern onboard Ethernet-based digital backbones and networks with requirements for IPv4/IPv6 routing, time synchronization, security, high reliability, and support for network redundancy.
This innovative high-speed connectivity solution can significantly improve any platform’s reliability and survivability in the field by offering a fast-boot mode. This mode allows the switch to be fully configured and ready for operation within 45 seconds after a power-up or restart event.
Aitech’s M622 is the only product available today that combines a SWaP-C optimized XMC form factor with this high network bandwidth capacity, interface speed, and a rich set of networking features.
Aitech will display the new M622 Ethernet switch/router at Stand 354 in Hall 6 during Eurosatory, which will be held from June 17 to 21 at the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Center in Paris, FR. Stop by and learn firsthand how the M622 enhances defense and security platforms globally.
