Mini PCI Express network interface card for unmanned vehicles introduced by Curtiss-Wright
ASHBURN, Va. – The Curtiss-Wright Corp. Defense Solutions division in Ashburn, Va., is introducing the rugged Parvus mNIC-210 Mini PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet network interface card for adding dual Gigabit Ethernet interfaces to the Parvus DuraCOR and DuraWORX embedded computing mission computers to support in-platform local area network (LAN) connectivity.
The mNIC-210 is for use as a network control module in systems deployed on unmanned vehicles, helicopters, ground vehicles, and industrial applications.
The rugged small form factor (SFF) module delivers the network capabilities of two individual mini PCI Express network interface card modules in one slot. The card has industrial temperature-rated Intel I210 network interfaces and on-board Ethernet magnetics.
The card is available as an add-on integration option for Curtiss-Wright’s family of SFF rugged DuraCOR and DuraWORX modular mission processors (with Intel Xeon, Core i7 and Atom processors), as well as in other systems used in customer specific industrial and military applications.
The mNIC-210 is for optimal performance in harsh environments. It operates in temperatures from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius and is shock and vibration rated to MIL-STD-810G. The module operates at altitudes up to 60,000 feet, and offers potting of components and conformal coating.
