A Flexible Switch in a Common Modular Format

The G101 is a fully managed 3U flexible multiport Gigabit Switch, with a 29 GBit/s switch matrix, implemented as a CompactPCI Serial board. It occupies one system slot or one peripheral slot using a 4 HP front panel with two Gigabit Ethernet ports on RJ45 connectors and one 2.5 Gb SFP cage. Alternatively, the G101 can be supplied with three M12 A-coded connectors on the front panel. A good alternative for a version with M12 X-coded connectors is the G102. The intelligent backplane concept for MEN switches allows high flexibility in network applications and management.

High Speed, High Efficiency and Extensive Protocols

The G101 guarantees high speed, high efficiency and an extensive firmware supporting various protocols like security, time synchronicity, stability, as well as for temperature needs. The switch supports EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) and IEEE1588v2 as a standard on all ports.

Various Connection Possibilities due to Various Port Options

The G101 features three Ethernet ports on the front. Alternatively these are available on the rear, where a total of 24 ports is possible. These include 12 ports with integrated 10/100/1000 Mbit/s copper PHYs. For the configuration of additional ports controlled via the backplane MEN offers a number of different line cards. In addition, the G101 features a high performance port with up to 2.5 Gbit/s for an SFP pluggable module to support a high-speed uplink.

Increased Reliability thanks to Built-In Test Mechanisms

The switch is fault tolerant and restores itself on its own: If a link is temporarily unavailable, frames can be sent via backup/redundant links (spanning tree protocol/link aggregation) and no data loss occurs. Its built-in test mechanisms make the G101 an even more reliable component in the communication system.

Rugged and Compliant to Railway Standards

The railway Ethernet switch is specifically designed for rugged rolling-stock communication systems. It is fully compliant with the EN 50155 railway standard and qualified for a -40 °C to +85 °C operating temperature.

CP68302 is compliant with PICMG CompactPCI specification. The switch board is largely applicable to high speed data switching and routing among boards and payloads at the internal of CPCI and ATR chassis. With standard 6U CPCI form factor, the Switch is compatible with ATR mechanical designs.

CP68302 is designed with two heat-dissipating solutions: traditional air-cooling and ruggedized conduction- cooling with reliable anti-shock and anti-vibration performance, and excellent heat dissipation capability.

CP68302 implemented basic functions of switching and routing stacks. It supports 802.3 series of standard, IP/ICMP network layer protocol and even TCP&DUP transport layer protocol. By twenty-four 10/100/1000M auto-negotiation Ethernet interfaces, CP68302 accomplishes the flexible transmission configurations, meeting both internal and external data exchange demands. Users can benefit from easier fully integration and modularization, and compared with external commercial Switches and HUBs, the system with CP68302 inside improves system reliability and availability dramatically.

CP68302 support multiple configuration management methods: command line, Telnet, FTP/TFTP, Ping/traceroute.

Target applications:
ITS (Intelligent Transportation System), Smart Factory, Smart Grid, Industrial Communications and Computing.
