MILS0802-SR

L2/L3 SFF Military Switch Router

Overview

As modern military vehicles become increasingly digitised, Ethernet has become a critical backbone for enabling high-speed, reliable, and interoperable communications between onboard systems. From sensor integration to real-time data sharing, Ethernet ensures seamless connectivity across mission-critical platforms.

The MILS0802-SR switch is a compact unit that combines high-performance Ethernet switching with edge computing capabilities, enabling real-time data processing and connectivity in space-constrained military environments.

Compact in size. Powerful in performance. Designed for duty.

Key Features

  1. 8x 10/100/1000BASE-T Copper Ethernet ports, 2x 1000BASE-SX/LX Fiber Optic Ethernet ports

  2. Full in-house design (including networking and synchronization IP Cores) based on a reconfigurable MPSoC platform with edge computing capabilities.

  3. Advanced security means including IEEE 802.1X and MACsec
  4. Simplified management and monitoring via a user-friendly HTTPS web interface or a flexible console port
  5. Sealed military grade and compact enclosure with MIL-STD-1275E power supply
