The NETernity™ SWE540A is a fully
managed (Layer 2/3) 6U VPX Ethernet
switch designed to meet the most
demanding requirements for network
switching in tactical applications. The
SWE540A, with its configuration options of
up to 20 data plane ports and OpenWare™
switch management software, is designed
to support high performance embedded
computing (HPEC) applications.
The switch is available in both aircooled and conduction-cooled versions,
providing multiple OpenVPX configurations
supporting a mix of dataplane and control
plane ports. In addition, there is an available
option to support four QSFP+ and two
1000BaseT ports. ECC protection on the
management processor memory offers
higher reliability in harsh environments.
Abaco’s patent pending technology for
thermal management provides improved
product reliability and thermal performance
for the SWE540A in a low weight solution.
The SWE540A delivers data switching and
routing at fabric speed that can be fully
managed and easily deployed. Proven,
high-performance architecture and a
multilayer switching fabric provide a rich
feature set, broad functionality, scalability,
and product longevity.
Based on a PowerPC management
processor and a leading high-performance
switch fabric, the SWE540A has integrated
Layer 2/3 switching capabilities as well
as the ability to support higher Layer 4-7
functionality when required.
The switch management environment
for the SWE540A is Abaco’s in-house
developed and supported OpenWare.
OpenWare offers comprehensive
management features for Layer 2/3
switching and routing, and provides
support for a wide range of network
protocols and MIBs with extensive
capabilities for multicast, Quality of Service,
VLANs, and differentiated services.
OpenWare can be modified to meet
particular customer requirements, and
provides a number of ways to manage
the switch via serial console, SNMP,
Telnet, SSH or web interface. In addition,
OpenWare provides a number of security
features including denial of service attack
prevention, user password mechanisms
with multiple levels of security and
authorization schemes including 802.1X
and sanitization.
The SWE540A provides a migration path
for Abaco’s GBX460 Ethernet switch.
The configuration of the SWE540A with
20 40GBASE-KR4/10GBASE-KX4 and
16 1000BaseKX ports offers the same
hardware pinouts as the GBX460.
