Designed to meet military specifications for use in harsh defense environments that include battlefield communications, ground combat vehicles and airborne applications, the series includes four models with varying 12-18 port counts, military-style D38999 connectors and fiber and copper options. All of the switches in the series offer durable packaging, protected circuitry and advanced software, providing a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solution that reduces development time and simplifies procurement in military or heavy industrial environments, as well as a common software platform for easy deployment. Suggested applications include C4ISR-Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance, situational awareness, combat vehicle, airborne and shipboard networks. The series meets MIL-STD-810G, MIL-STD-461F and MIL-STD-1275D standards.
