The H2 implements standard Ethernet switching functions via Broadcom® technology, and features 6.6W (12 x Gig-E ports active) at 85°C, IPv4 and IPv6 traffic class support, automatic learning and ageing tags, true non-blocking Gig-E integrated switch fabric with 4Mb packet buffer memory (for L2 functionality) and high performance look-up engine with support for up to 8K uni-cast MAC addresses.

The H2 module switch enables system integrators to link Ethernet-based communications, control systems and sensor data across a broad range of application-ready subsystems. Applications utilising the next generation of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) and other autonomous robotic systems can take advantage of the high channel density and extremely low power features which the H2 has to offer.  In addition, based on NAI’s COTS, multi-function, high-density I/O and processor platforms, multi-board systems can be configured combining the H2 multi-port Gig-E switch capability with application specific processing and I/O.
