The FP 100/008 10-port, 10/100 Ethernet switch handles switch-fabric chores in a CompactPCI PICMG 2.16 and ANSI VITA 31.1 packet switched environment. The nonblocking, layer 2, unmanaged switch targets low-power, low-cost telecom applications. It supports port-based virtual local-area network (VLAN) or IEEE 802.1Q VLAN with up to 64 VLANs. The board has PICMG 2.9 IPMI system monitoring and hot insertion/removal support. Ports 10 and 9 are brought out to the front and rear panels, respectively. Prices for the FP100/008 start at $1000.
Senior Content Director - Electronic Design and Microwaves & RF
I am Editor of Electronic Design focusing on embedded, software, and systems. As Senior Content Director, I also manage Microwaves & RF and I work with a great team of editors to provide engineers, programmers, developers and technical managers with interesting and useful articles and videos on a regular basis.

I earned a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology and a Masters in Computer Science from Rutgers University. I still do a bit of programming using everything from C and C++ to Rust and Ada/SPARK. I do a bit of PHP programming for Drupal websites. I have posted a few Drupal modules.
I still get a hand on software and electronic hardware. Some of this can be found on our Kit Close-Up video series. You can also see me on many of our TechXchange Talk videos. I am interested in a range of projects from robotics to artificial intelligence.
