Description:
Amphenol’s Rugged 156-Channel 50G/400G PAM-4 Ethernet Switch Box is conduction cooled and configurable for system connectivity, speeds, port types, and interoperation with various high-speed media converters and connectors for system interfacing.
This switch box features 12 copper ports and 144 fiber optic ports, each capable of 1GBase-SX, 10GBase-SR, 40GBaseSR4, 25GBase-SR, and 100GBase-SR4 50GBase-SR + 400BGase-SR8. In Amphenol’s state of the art communications testing center, the switch boxes are aggressively tested at line rates to RFC 2889 for switching and RFC 2544 for L2/L3 performance, latency, packet forwarding, and other key metrics.
The switch is manufactured using derivatives of Amphenol’s MIL-DTL-38999 Series connectors. These connectors contain standard AS39029 qualified Size 22D contacts, Octonet contacts, and 48F MT Ferrule FiberOptic contact assemblies.
Amphenol’s Octonet Contacts are a proven design used in a variety of Military Programs. The Octonet is a Size 8 contact which houses (4) differential pair contacts. It is a 100 Ohm impedance contact, capable of a data rate of 4 Gbps maximum per contact pair. The contact system has been tested and passed all the Qualification Requirements of an AS39029 contact. The MT ferrules are used for fiber optic Ethernet ports and the AS39029 style contacts are used for power inputs and management functions.
