ECHING, Germany, 11 June 2010. Kontron in Eching, Germany, is introducing the CP3923 3U CompactPCI Gigabit Ethernet switch for IPv4/v6 communications networks and network-centric military, aerospace, transportation, and automation embedded computing applications in harsh environments.
The CP3923 is a managed Layer 2/3 Gigabit Ethernet switch offering IPv4 routing and optional IPv6 routing that supports CLI, Telnet, Web, and SNMP management interfaces to configure protocols and parameters including Layer 2 and Layer 3 (IPv4/v6) protocols, Multicasting, QoS, and security. For applications requiring higher bandwidth, it also supports link aggregation, intelligent platform management (IPMI), and hot swap.
The base configuration (CP3923-8C) supports eight Gigabit Ethernet ports via RJ45 and eight Gigabit Ethernet ports via rear I/O. Two additional versions are for transportation and mobile applications, providing four (CP3923-4M) or eight (CP3923-8M) Fast Ethernet ports via M12-D connectors.
All versions support eight Gigabit Ethernet via rear I/O, comply with the EN 50155 railway standard, and operate in temperatures from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius. A rugged conduction-cooled version is planned.
