At the moment I’m glad to unveil the brand new Catalyst ESS9300 Embedded Sequence change based mostly on open requirements adopted by the US Division of Protection (DoD) for constructing the subsequent era of communications programs for his or her subject operations. Adoption of those requirements will assist the army cut back its dependency on proprietary level options, which can cut back prices, allow higher interoperability, and make deployment simpler and quicker.
The army adopted SOSA (Sensor Open Techniques Structure), C5ISR/EW Modular Open Suite of Requirements (CMOSS), and OpenVPX requirements to deal with the challenges that proprietary programs introduced reminiscent of restricted interoperability, safety vulnerabilities, lengthy improvement cycles, and restricted scalability. The adoption of SOSA, CMOSS and OpenVPX helps the army modernize its communications programs, and addresses the problems they have been dealing with by selling interoperability, lowering prices, accelerating improvement cycles, and enhancing safety. These requirements assist the discount of dimension, weight and energy of communications programs 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 characteristic units for these army use circumstances. IOS XE additionally brings superior safety capabilities reminiscent of 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 reminiscent of EIGRP for sustaining dependable communications by rapidly recovering from community topology modifications, reminiscent of hyperlink failures.
Catalyst ESS9300 Embedded Sequence change is constructed utilizing Cisco Safe Improvement Lifecycle and helps Cisco Reliable Applied sciences. This protects our clients in opposition to counterfeit {hardware}, maintains software program integrity and permits safe communications.
The brand new VPX3-623 Change Module
We’re additionally asserting that, working collectively with our companion 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 will likely be out there within the VPX kind issue. To kind the VPX3-623, Catalyst ESS9300 suits in a Curtiss-Wright developed service card, and collectively they slot in a rugged VPX chassis. This chassis goes inside army automobiles to offer vital safe communications even within the harshest battlefield circumstances.
The VPX3-623 delivers the options that floor and airborne community designers want and anticipate for speaking each in and outdoors of the system chassis whereas considerably enhancing community safety, flexibility, and management on the tactical edge for CMOSS and SOSA aligned programs.
As the primary ruggedized purpose-built change compliant with these requirements and supporting vital communications and cybersecurity requirements reminiscent of FIPS 140 encryption, the joint resolution will likely be certified to fulfill MIL-STD-810H environmental ruggedization necessities and ship an array of community switching capabilities not beforehand out there on VPX {hardware}.
Along with bringing extensively used enterprise-class, hardware-based switching expertise 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 Industrial Options for Labeled (CSfC) information encryption options to new kind components.
Cisco embedded networking portfolio
The brand new Catalyst ESS9300 VPX change joins our in depth embedded networking household, comprising of different switches and routers that stretch our industrial portfolio. Our embedded portfolio presents a spread of superior networking options designed to combine seamlessly into numerous environments, together with industrial, army, and transportation functions. These merchandise present sturdy, safe, and versatile networking capabilities tailor-made to fulfill the distinctive calls for of mission-critical operations.
