Networking and Switching

Curtiss Wright Controls Defense Solutions switches enable the vision of inter-networked military and aerospace systems by providing systems integrators with a fast and powerful way to interconnect chassis, cards, and CPU’s through switched Gigabit Ethernet links. Operating at wire-speed, Gigabit Ethernet switching can be used to architect the infrastructure for unified (GbE only) or hybrid (GbE and other switched fabric) networks for transferring IP-based control and data packets within advanced military systems.
