GigFamily Networking

GigFamily routers network the systems within a spacecraft and, more importantly, connect spacecraft to each other: across a constellation or between constellations. Data moves directly from craft to craft and can be buffered from other sources until a path is available, so no ground station is required. A ground station is simply another node on the network. RF and optical terminals connect as ordinary network interfaces, so the network works with whatever links a mission flies.

Each product in this suite:

• Is space-rated for vibration, thermal-vacuum, and radiation
• Has multi-gigabit Ethernet with 10G and 1G ports
• Uses standard Internet protocols (IPv4, IPv6, MPLS)
• Uses Cambrian network-management software
• Works with any RF or optical terminal
