Deterministic Ethernet Switches and EndPoint Switches

In the modern battlefield, embedded edge systems are used to collect, analyse and communicate data from the field in real-time, driving a need for deterministic network protocols.

Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is the new generation Ethernet that allows merging in the same network hard real-time, soft real-time and best effort traffic.

This technology ensures the timely delivery of messages, and the interoperability of all the devices on a deterministic Ethernet network, to meet the needs of applications such as radar, electronic warfare, signals intelligence or weapons control systems, that have extremely tight latency constraints.

RelyUm Rugged offers a comprehensive range of COTS switches and endpoint switches to cover the requirements of these mission-critical applications.
