NETernity™ GBX24

NETernity GBX24 is a fully managed (Layer 2/3) Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to meet the most demanding requirements for network switching in tactical applications. This Gigabit switch is available in both air- and conduction-cooled formats and features a non-blocking shared memory architecture. This provides 48 Gbits/s core offering full wire speed performance with minimal latency on all ports simultaneously. The GBX24 has comprehensive network management capabilities based on FASTPATH® software that includes VLANs, link aggregation, spanning tree, IPv4, IPv6, IGMP, traffic policing, Quality of Service (QoS), guaranteed bandwidth and SNMP. Configuration of the switch is via a comprehensive and intuitive web interface, command line interface or SNMP. GBX24 provides optional optical expansion through a mix of onboard optics and a separate Optical Expansion Board. All twenty-four ports can be converted to optical outputs to give twenty-four ports of Gigabit, either 1000 BaseSX or 1000 BaseLX. Onboard built-in test (BIT) ensures the GBX24 can be easily linked with other Abaco Systems boards to provide integrated system level health monitoring and diagnostics.
