Called Iris, it “acts as the system keystone to provide secure, high bandwidth switch connections between each PIC, critical in ensuring they work together”, according to the company. “Typical applications include force protection, situational awareness, command, control and mission computing.”
It supports physically-separate data plane and control plane switching capabilities and the slot profile SLT3-SWH-5F4UG7U-14.4.14.
100Gbit/s on the data plane, suits it to cyber, electronic warefare, sig-int and comms applications on land sea and air, said Concurrent.
The company is not making the unit itself, but instead has signed a multi-year reseller agreement with an undisclosed partner, with extension options to sell and support it globally. Initial orders for development quantities will be fulfilled this year, with deployment volumes starting in 2024.
“Iris fills the last high-value gap in our systems portfolio, and leveraging this functionality from a trusted partner enables us to deliver products to market at an increasingly swift cadence,” said Concurrent CEO Miles Adcock. “Over the last year, I have personally met our partner a number of times as we have built our mutual respect based on aligned values and the desire to support each other’s business.”
