Immediately I’m blissful to unveil the brand new Catalyst ESS9300 Embedded Sequence change primarily based on open requirements adopted by the US Division of Protection (DoD) for constructing the subsequent era of communications techniques for his or her discipline operations. Adoption of those requirements will assist the navy cut back its dependency on proprietary level options, which is able to cut back prices, allow higher interoperability, and make deployment simpler and quicker.
The navy adopted SOSA (Sensor Open Methods Structure), C5ISR/EW Modular Open Suite of Requirements (CMOSS), and OpenVPX requirements to deal with the challenges that proprietary techniques introduced equivalent to restricted interoperability, safety vulnerabilities, lengthy improvement cycles, and restricted scalability. The adoption of SOSA, CMOSS and OpenVPX helps the navy modernize its communications techniques, and addresses the problems they have been going through by selling interoperability, decreasing prices, accelerating improvement cycles, and enhancing safety. These requirements help the discount of dimension, weight and energy of communications techniques whereas growing their flexibility and flexibility.
The brand new Catalyst ESS9300 Embedded Sequence
The brand new Catalyst ESS9300 Embedded Sequence change aligns with SOSA, CMOSS, and VPX requirements. It runs Cisco IOS XE software program which brings within the richness of enterprise grade networking function units for these navy use circumstances. IOS XE additionally brings superior safety capabilities equivalent to Layer 2 encryption, gadget authentication, port safety, and community segmentation which might be mandatory to guard their vital infrastructure and communications, and superior networking capabilities equivalent to EIGRP for sustaining dependable communications by rapidly recovering from community topology adjustments, equivalent to hyperlink failures.
Catalyst ESS9300 Embedded Sequence change is constructed utilizing Cisco Safe Improvement Lifecycle and helps Cisco Reliable Applied sciences. This protects our prospects towards counterfeit {hardware}, maintains software program integrity and permits safe communications.
The brand new VPX3-623 Swap Module
We’re additionally saying that, working collectively with our associate Curtiss-Wright, we’re constructing the standards-based VPX3-623 change module of which the brand new Catalyst ESS9300 change kinds the technological spine. That is the primary time that Cisco switching shall be accessible within the VPX kind issue. To kind the VPX3-623, Catalyst ESS9300 matches in a Curtiss-Wright developed provider card, and collectively they slot in a rugged VPX chassis. This chassis goes inside navy automobiles to supply vital safe communications even within the harshest battlefield circumstances.
The VPX3-623 delivers the options that floor and airborne community designers want and count on for speaking each in and out of doors of the system chassis whereas considerably enhancing community safety, flexibility, and management on the tactical edge for CMOSS and SOSA aligned techniques.
As the primary ruggedized purpose-built change compliant with these requirements and supporting vital communications and cybersecurity requirements equivalent to FIPS 140 encryption, the joint answer shall be certified to fulfill MIL-STD-810H environmental ruggedization necessities and ship an array of community switching capabilities not beforehand accessible on VPX {hardware}.
Along with bringing broadly used enterprise-class, hardware-based switching know-how to CMOSS/SOSA aligned embedded ecosystems, VPX3-623’s safety certifications will allow it to be securely deployed on Authorities networks and migrate NSA-approved Business Options for Categorized (CSfC) information encryption options to new kind elements.
Cisco embedded networking portfolio
The brand new Catalyst ESS9300 VPX change joins our intensive embedded networking household, comprising of different switches and routers that reach our industrial portfolio. Our embedded portfolio provides a spread of superior networking options designed to combine seamlessly into various environments, together with industrial, navy, and transportation functions. These merchandise present strong, safe, and versatile networking capabilities tailor-made to fulfill the distinctive calls for of mission-critical operations.
