Interface Masters Rolls Out Niagara 130x Embedded Switch Family
Interface Masters Technologies, an industry leader and innovator in networking solutions, introduced a new family of Embedded Switches (ES) products targeted to networking appliances, servers, server blades and embedded computing applications. The Niagara 130x Family is a fully featured embedded Ethernet switch that provides Layer2/Layer3 Gigabit Ethernet and is ready to be integrated into servers by connecting via a serial or Ethernet connection, which enables quick time to market for complex networking appliances. The family is based on the Vitesse SparX-G24 and provides no blocking, wire-speed Gigabit performance on all ports, using an internal 46-Gbps frame bus. The devices are optimized for SMB and SOHO for unmanaged, as well as managed, applications. Due to the internal memory buffers, which are sufficient in size to absorb substantial bursts, no external memory is required.
