Extreme Engineering Solutions' XPand6206 Rugged Small Form Factor (SFF) COTS 20-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch and Router with Cisco IOS?

Eletter Product

The XPand6206 by Extreme Engineering Solutions (X-ES) is a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Rugged 20-Port Gigabit Ethernet switch and router that maximizes performance while minimizing SWaP. With a compact design and weighing less than nine pounds, the XPand6206 is the smallest available, truly rugged, Ethernet switch to support this amount of networking performance and functionality.

Features:

Ethernet I/O

  • Two XChange3013 3U VPX Gigabit Ethernet switches
  • Twenty 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports
  • IPv4 and IPv6 support
  • Support for jumbo frames up to 12 kB
  • Advanced cable open/short detection
  • Energy Efficient Ethernet™ support
  • Non-blocking, full wire-speed
  • XPedite5205 Cisco IOS® Gigabit Ethernet Embedded Services Router XMC (optional)

Physical Characteristics

  • 4.88 in. (W), 3.61 in. (H), 8.90 in. (L)
  • Weighs approx. 8 lbs.
  • Environmentally sealed
  • Circular connector support
  • Designed and tested to operate in ambient temperatures down to -40°C and extreme high temperatures.

The XPand6206 is designed to meet the rigorous standards of MIL-STD-810 and DO-160, while integrating the latest power-saving and performance-enhancing technology. The heat from the internal conduction-cooled modules is conducted to sidewall heat exchangers, where it is dissipated to the ambient environment by convection cooling or to an attached cold plate by conduction cooling. The system includes an integrated MIL-STD-704 28 VDC power supply and MIL-STD-461 EMI filtering.

Switch & Router Support

The XPand6206 provides a SWaP-optimized alternative to traditionally larger slot-based systems; it is an actual Small Form Factor (SFF) system based on two COTS XChange3013 3U VPX Gigabit Ethernet switches. The XChange3013 delivers full wire-speed across all of its ports and supports jumbo packets up to 12 kB. It supports IPv6, Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE), and a comprehensive set of IETF RFCs and IEEE protocols. The XPedite5205 Cisco IOS® router XMC can be installed on the XChange3013 to provide highly secure data, voice, and video communications to stationary and mobile network nodes.
