With the EPSM-10GX4, we have a powerful platform to support quick development of gigabit speed Ethernet systems in a module the size of the typical credit card. Not only this, but it has complete switching and routing capabilities due to embedded layer 2 and 3 software. It provides an ideal option for low- to medium- volume projects that need a rugged Ethernet switch that can pack high performance into a small space.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The EPSM-10GX4 features layer 3 capable Ethernet router\/switch integrated circuits and includes embedded software with web and serial port management interfaces. These features mean the switch module can support routing between virtual local area networks (VLANs) and offer features such as port mirroring and traffic monitoring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To ensure suitability for harsh operating environments, the EPSM-10GX4 has an extended operating temperature range of -40 to +85 degrees Celsius. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The four 10 Gbps ports are also suitable for use with rugged 10 Gbps transceivers on the carrier board, allowing for ruggedisation of the module.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Embedded computing expert Recab UK is offering a new ultra-compact Ethernet switch module from Diamond Systems to the UK market.\u00a0 The new product, the EPSM-10GX4 managed gigabit Ethernet switch module, allows hardware, electronics and system engineers to quickly develop high data rate Ethernet switchboards and systems in industrial, transport and telecommunications applications.&nbsp; The EPSM-10GX4 has &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18272,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[104],"tags":[8950,8930,8951,8586],"class_list":["post-18271","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-electronics","tag-diamond-systems","tag-ethernet-switches","tag-high-speed-comms","tag-recab-uk"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
