Ethernet Direct Penetrates Unmanned Vehicles Application with Industrial Ethernet Switches
03/12/2010
Taipei, Taiwan, 12 March, 2010– Ethernet Direct Corporation, a professional and primary provider of Industrial Networking and communication solutions, is chosen in a recent unmanned ground vehicles application located in North America.
Unmanned ground vehicles are robotic platforms that are used mainly in military related applications as an extension of human capability. The robot is suitable for outdoor operation and can do multi-function jobs in place of humans such as force protection, surveillance, communications and prevention of dangerous field activities. The unmanned ground vehicles are mostly used in aerial and naval underwater operations.
In order to control the operation, industrial gigabit Ethernet switches are implemented in the system and Ethernet Direct provides true mission critical products backed up by strict certification approvals not found in typical industrial devices to combat hazardous locations. The unmanned vehicles are controlled at a remote communication via network. Each of the vehicles is unmanned and controlled at a distance and industrial gigabit Ethernet switches are installed to provide control.
There are several models of gigabit switches and converters adopted to manage the ground operation. These are HMG-1628, HMG-828, HMG-628G and RUG-118. All the industrial Managed gigabit Ethernet offer ring redundancy and recovery of less than 10ms to ensure highly reliable fault-tolerant system in a real time operation. Extensive configuration with simple user friendly products ensures maximum network security demanded by the mission critical application. Ethernet Direct provides a solution that provides industrially hardened designed switches specifically designed to operate reliably in electrically harsh, demanding environments and in hazardous locations.
The continuous advances in military, transportation, medical, and other non-manufacturing robotics applications is proven to be reliable and cost effective. There are numerous potential unmanned vehicle applications to increase mission performance, combat effectiveness, and physical security needed in the 21st century.
The Global Ethernet Direct team is rapidly gaining momentum in the Industrial Ethernet field with the teamwork formed by industry experts and professionals with proven experiences.
