US Rugged Ethernet Switches
Rugged Network Switches for Vehicles and Defense
A rugged Ethernet switch is a complete managed switch in a sealed enclosure, built to sit on a vehicle, vessel or aircraft where dust, water, shock and noisy power would stop a commercial switch. Our military Ethernet switches carry gigabit ports on circular MIL-DTL-38999 connectors, with Layer 2+ or Layer 3 management and a local serial port for set-up.
Options include IEEE-1588 PTP builds, MIL-STD-461 power filtering or MIL-grade power supplies for MIL-STD-704 and MIL-STD-1275 supplies, IP65 and IP67 sealed designs and -40 to 85 °C operation, suited to ground vehicles, mission systems and unmanned platforms where the network must survive the environment.
Speak to a rugged networking specialist to match the ports, connectors and power standard to your platform.
