The XMC-ETH6 includes four independent 1G/2.5G ports and two independent 1G copper ports, enabling users to meet diverse network requirements. It features six independent Ethernet controllers, four of which support TSN/IEEE1388 PTP for robust and efficient network performance. Equipped with rugged, highly EMC compliant IEC 61076 standard Harting ix front connectors, the XMC-ETH6 ensures reliable and secure connectivity even in demanding environments.
The XMC-ETH6 offers flexible mounting options and is available in both air-cooled and rugged conduction-cooled versions. The air-cooled variant features front panel Ethernet connectors that comply with the IEC 'IX' Ethernet industrial standard, offering easy locking, enhanced robustness and improved EMC resistance. The conduction-cooled version is well-suited for harsh environments such as defence or transportation applications due to its rugged design.
Featuring an 8-port, 8-lane PCIe Gen3 switch, the XMC-ETH6 ensures global reliable bandwidth for high-performance applications, enabling stable and efficient data transfer. A 3U VPX format version is also available on request, with the same interfaces for seamless integration into existing systems.
