Switch/Router Systems

When it comes to enhancing situational awareness in todays defense platforms, seamless and trusted communication between mission-critical systems is imperative.

Curtiss-Wrights field-proven rugged switches and routers enable mobile networks on-board vehicle and aircraft platforms to securely and affordably deploy digital network architectures for situational awareness and network-centric operations. Designed to enable a holistic ecosystem where all technological components work together to enhance the warfighter experience, these rugged subsystems and card solutions give systems integrators capabilities for interconnecting cards, sensors and processors simply through switched Ethernet links.

Designed with Curtiss-Wrights decades of experience optimizing defense solutions for the size, weight and power (SWaP) constraints of civil and military platforms, these robust IP networking solutions support advanced in-vehicle and airborne LAN switching/WAN routing requirements. New platforms and technology refresh efforts routinely leverage these solutions to facilitate the integration of C4ISR systems, eliminate communication stovepipes, and deliver new information sharing capabilities. From simple, plug-and-play unmanaged Layer 2 switches to high-bandwidth managed Layer 3 Gigabit / 10 Gigabit solutions and ruggedized Cisco IOS technology-based options, Curtiss-Wright has a broad array of rugged COTS IP networking solutions to meet your application requirements.
