UNIGET Universal Gigabit Ethernet Controller

UNIGET

Universal Gigabit Ethernet Controller up to four GbE Controllers

Description

Overview

Universal Gigabit Ethernet Controller

The UNIGET Family is a Universal Gigabit Ethernet expansion module based on the PCIe/104 standard. It is designed to expand mainly the rugged MPL embedded computers. With a single UNIGET module, a system can be expanded with up to four Gigabit Ethernet controllers!

To support the different requirements of a flexible embedded solution, the UNIGET supports several interfaces like RJ45 connectors, 2mm lockable header, and SFP cages for fiber optical LANs. In addition, the copper ports of the module also facilitate Power over Ethernet (PoE+). Each ethernet port has its own Intel Ethernet controller connected to a dedicated PCI Express x1 lane

UNIGET Advantages

  • Up to four Gigabit Ethernet ports
  • Four independent Intel Ethernet controllers
  • Status LEDs onboard or remote accessible
  • RJ45, 2mm lockable headers or SFP
  • Each LAN is connected to dedicated PCI Express x1 lane
  • Single 3.3V power supply
  • Independent power supply of the PoE
  • Long-term* available solution
  • These features make the UNIGET Family ideally suited for any rugged industrial or defense network applications. Due to the low power consumption, robust and flexible design, the products are well suited for embedded systems even in extended temperature environments. The UNIGET makes it easy to set up a challenging network gateway with all flavors and can also be combined with our rugged Switch Family.
    * Typically 10 years or more, 20+ years repair-ability (after first introduction)

    Extended Temperature Option

    ReferenceDescription
    XTEST-1 Extended temperature test, -40°C up to +85°C

    For deployment in harsh environments, the UNIGET can be ordered in an extended temperature version. Every system needs to pass various tests in a climate chamber to prove that it will perform flawless over the temperature range indicated.
