New Ethernet Switch delivers full Cisco routing capabilities to defense and avionics industries while delivering smallest size, weight and power (SWaP) specification available

Washington DC, Nov 21, 2013 – Techaya, a prime developer of military-grade, ruggedized IP-based communication solutions will debut the MILTECH™ 9012-C military- grade Ethernet switch with routing capabilities, at AUSA 2013, October 21-23, Washington, D.C., Israel Pavilion, Hall B, Stand #2357. Designed for defence and avionic applications, the Cisco-based 2-kg device combines full Ethernet switching and routing capabilities in to the industry’s smallest form factor.

The MIL-STD MILTECH 9012-C is a 12 port Gigabit managed Ethernet switch that has embedded the Cisco IOS routing functions to deliver a flexible communications platform with industry-standard network control and management. The MILTECH 9012-C uniquely combines high-throughput managed Gigabit switching with the full capabilities of a Cisco ESR router.

The MILTECH 9012-C features mechanical packaging and technological enhancements designed to comply with MIL-STD-810F, MIL-STD-461 & MIL-STD-1275/704A to deliver high reliability in the most extreme environments. Successfully tested in multiple locations in
Israel and around the world, the uniquely ruggedized unit has been hardened – as part of the manufacturing process – to improve ingress, impact, and shock/vibration protection. The switch-router is passively cooled with no moving parts and uses sealed Amphenol connectors to comply with IP67 standards.

“Techaya has significant investments in R&D to develop products that withstand the tests of the modern battlefield and avionics. We are dedicated to the creation of cutting-edge communications solutions that deliver innovative size, weight and power (SWaP) requirements that are needed at the intersection of mobility and networked communications,” according to Ehud Palgi. “The MILTECH 9012-C is another example of how Techaya has taken a novel approach to combine and switching and routing capabilities in to a unique architecture and physical platform.”

Techaya products are distributed exclusively through MilSource in the United State.
