OnTime Networks wins contract to supply Rugged Military Ethernet Switch for Radar project
OSLO, Norway, Oct. 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- OnTime Networks, a global leader for rugged, time synchronized Ethernet solutions for the aerospace and defense industries, announced today that it has received a contract from a leading international systems integrator in France to supply its rugged military grade CM-6900 1U height 19" rack mountable Gigabit/10Gigabit Ethernet switch series for a military radar project. Under the contract, shipments are scheduled to begin in early 2018. The selection of the CM-6900 Series was influenced by its high performance modular, scalable and future-proof architecture, as well as its advanced features.
Pål-Jørgen Kyllesø, CTO of OnTime Networks commented, "The Cloudberry CM-6900-MIL 1U 19" rack mounted Gigabit/10Gigabit Ethernet unit is a rugged layer 2/3 switch for military land, sea and air applications. The CM-6900-MIL series platform can provide 0-4x 10GBase-T(x) ports and 12, 24, 36 or 48x GbE ports of either 10/100/1000BASE-T(x) or 1000BASE-SX/LX type. This platform has a modular concept that provides the flexibility to tailor the unit to meet the need for different port and speed combinations either copper or fiber or 1Gb/s or 10Gb/s."
OnTime Networks' CEO Øyvind Holmeide further stated, "The contract builds on OnTime Networks' strong and successful track record in building fully rugged and advanced network system components." He continued, "Surveillance radar systems are a critical part of national defense systems, and our role is it to ensure that our network provides the highest possible mission readiness."
The CM-6900 1U height 19" rack mountable Gigabit/10Gigabit Ethernet switch series is specifically designed to provide reliable, high-performance connectivity for extremely demanding size, weight and power (SWaP) constraints in harsh demanding environments (e.g. high altitude, extreme shock & vibration, extended temperatures, humidity, noisy EMI, dirty power).
