The Defense Solutions division of Curtiss-Wright says that the Parvus SWI-22-10 is the first 20-port Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switch PCI/104-Express card. The fully managed, SWaP-optimized COTS switch reduces slot-count while adding advanced Layer 2 network management features. It facilitates the integration of high-speed GbE local-area-network (LAN) switching for IP-enabled equipment, such as onboard computers, cameras, sensors, etc. Designed to meet MIL-STD-810G environmental requirements, the SWI-22-10 operates from ‒40 to +85°C and can withstand high shock and vibration in airborne and ground vehicle applications. The card supports IPv4 and IPv6 multicast traffic, virtual local area networks (VLANs), port control (speed/mode/statistics/flow control), quality of service (QoS) traffic prioritization, link aggregation (802.3ad) and SMNPv1/v2/v3 management. Also supported are secure authentication (802.1X, ACLs, Web/CLI), redundancy (RSTP/MSTP), precision timing (IEEE-1588v2), port monitoring, IGMP snooping, and data zeroizaiton. The SWI-22-10 is available as a standalone card or pre-integrated into an embedded subsystem, such as the PC/104-based Parvus DuraCOR mission computer and DuraMAR mobile router.
