Eviden's XMC Ethernet switch card is configurable, allowing systems to evolve

Coupled with the CPU card of a critical system, Eviden's XMC Ethernet switch card is configurable, allowing systems to evolve.

It offers the ability to partition data between open and secure environments that require a break in protocol for security and confidentiality reasons.

The card can be integrated on the mezzanine level with third-party embedded computers (air-land, naval or land-based) as well as with Eviden's multi-level gateway solutions (MLS Gateway).

Designed for the highest levels of criticality, Eviden's XMC Ethernet switch card supports multiple protocols and is compatible with the AFDX standard, enabling seamless integration into existing avionics systems. It is also DO-254 DAL A certifiable and developed in accordance with standards that support certification to the CC EAL 4+ level. It incorporates technology from Cetrac.io, a specialist in hardware switching technologies and a partner of Eviden.
