PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Driven by rapid advancement and lower costs, Ethernet
is becoming the standard for IP-based components in
a wide range of military and commercial land, sea, and
air applications. When building communications where
data prioritization is not a concern and the amount of
traffic is low, unmanaged, Fast Ethernet switches can
be an ideal solution.
The MILTECH708’s small size, IP67 rugged construction,
and Fast Ethernet make it the ideal switching solution
for command post, ground mobile and airborne
applications. Its eight 10/100Mbps ports are plug-nplay
compatible with all Ethernet equipment, providing
network connectivity for most portable Ethernet devices,
including:
• Rugged computers
• Navigation devices
• Voice and video communication systems
• IP-based sensors
• Battlefield communication C4ISR
• Combat vehicles, avionic and shipboard systems
The MILTECH 708 operates on readily available 24VDC
power and supports MIL-STD1275 so that it may be
powered directly from any available battery in the field.
The MILTECH’s mechanical packaging enhancements,
including ruggedized D38999 circular connectors, is
designed for MIL-STD-810F airborne and ground
environmental compliance and high reliability. Leveraging
best-in-class switching technology, the MILTECH708
serves as a robust commercial off-the-shelf (COTS)
solution for rugged LAN connectivity.
