VPX6-684 FireBlade II

Enabling the vision of inter-networked heterogeneous military and aerospace systems in the Global Information Grid (GIG), CWCEC's VPX6-684 FireBlade II provides Systems Integrators with a fast, secure and unified approach to interconnect subsystems, chassis, cards, and compute nodes within any given platform using 1 Gigabit Ethernet links.

Providing up to 24 wirespeed 10/100/1000 Mbps interfaces and up to 4 10Gbps interfaces in a single 6U VPX slot, the 684 is ideal for architecting system-wide Intra-Platform Networks (IPNs).

The SVME/DMV-684 comes with a powerful set of management interfaces and complete layer 2/3 software with dual IPv4/v6 support for building secure, high performance networks.

Features

  • Fully managed, intelligent multi-layer (layer2/3) gigabit Ethernet switch in a 6U VPX form factor
  • Complete range of convection and conduction cooled formats (IEEE 1101.1 and IEEE 1102.1) with shock and vibration support
  • Up to 24 x 1GbE (10/100/1000 Mbps) auto-negotiating copper interfaces  (4 of the ports can be optical)
  • Up to 4 x 10GbE (10 Gbps) XAUI interfaces
  • Transient voltage suppressors on each GbE port to protect from electrostatic discharge (ESD), cable discharge events (CDE), lightening and other induced voltage surges
  • Wirespeed performance for all packet sizes at layer 2 or layer 3 including jumbo packets
  • EIA232 out of band serial management and 10/100 debug port
  • Ideal for architecting IPv4, IPv4/v6, or pure IPv6 transformational network architecture with support for intelligent routing
  • Flexible network management, monitoring, and configuration capability via CLI, Telnet, Web, and SNMP interfaces
  • Supports latest switching/routing features for layer 2 switching; layer 2 multicasting; VLANs; Spanning Tree (Rapid and Multiple); link aggregation; port mirroring; CoS/QoS features; layer 3 IPv4/v6 routing; tunneling; IP Multicasting
  • Ubiquitous security including Secure Memory Erase; user authentication; port based security; protocol-based security; broadcast storm control; secure sockets layer (SSL); secure shell (SSH); stateless firewall capability; flexible Access Control Lists (ACLs); Network Address Translation (NAT) and Multi-cast NAT
  • Extensive Built in Test (BIT) capability including Power up BIT, Initiated BIT and Continuous BIT
