MULTIPROTOCOL SWITCHING/ROUTING FAMILY MPS SERIES GENERAL The MPS Series includes a complete range of products designed for providing broadband switching ser vices to suppor t professional or militar y networks, in both tactical and infrastructure environments. The data traffic increasing demand for Real Time Data/Command and Control applications, in connection with the need of having security features in the networks set new requirements for switching systems. The MPS Series is the answer to such a new multi-protocol networks scenario harmonizing together ISDN, IP/LAN, Combat Net Radio (CNR) and legacy STANAG/EUROCOM militar y systems. They provide shared transpor t ser vices on narrow and wide band bearers, of either good or poor quality as for BER and propagation delays. Networking capabilities are suited for deployable and fixed networks, with different routing schemes (flood search or deterministic) and with full suppor t of militar y user ser vices (priority, pre-emption, security, etc). The MPS Series suppor ts embedded VoIP Call Manager and Gateway features according to SIPv2 protocol.

The MPS series is provided with an Ad Hoc Routing, specifically designed for mobile applications. The dynamic bandwidth allocation features, the deliver y of end to end QoS to the different data and voice applications, the rugged design, the availability of platform versions and the full control capabilities complete the profile of this family of products. The MPS series switches can be either introduced seamlessly in legacy systems or be deployed in any new scenario to ser ve Professional or Armed Forces network requirements. MAIN FEATURES • Suitable for tactical, infrastructure and platform applications • Standard, compact or vehicular version available • 2.5 or 5 Gbps non blocking switching matrix • Large number of trunking, IP, ISDN, telephone and legacy inter faces • STANAG 4206/4578 suppor t • Militar y features provided (priority, pre-emption, security, self-affiliation, digital conference, non secure warning tone, etc) • Trunk Inter face hardening to operate with high BER • Encr yption devices criteria on inter faces • Power ful Traffic Management and Call Admission Control

Having such capability, MPS are par ticularly suitable for the extension of the infrastructure network features into the remote sites (reachback application). The card is also available with embedded bulk encr yption features for expor t applications. IP CARDS (IPCS) MPS supports an Ethernet 100BASE-TX interface with integrated IP routing that can be used for IP users access. CIRCUIT SWITCHED CARDS (CSCS)

KEY APPLICATIONS

SATELLITE REMOTE NETWORK CONNECTION

BROADBAND TRAFFIC AGGREGATION

MPS allow internetworking between Remote and Infrastructure Networks also by means of satellite links.

MPS are able to provide traffic aggregation for several different traffic types present at the edge of the network taking into consideration that they are provided with many types of access inter faces (FXS, ISDN BRI, ISDN E1/T1, E3, Ethernet, Serial up to 52 Mbps) and

BATTLEFIELD DIGITALISATION AND MPS165 The emerging Network Enabling Capabilities (NEC) and Network Centric War fare (NCW) doctrines foresee the extension of broadband ser vices to several kinds of militar y vehicles (tracked and wheeled) and mobile platforms. To this aim, Selex Communications has enriched the MPS Family with a vehicular version, called MPS165, designed to suppor t the tough shock/vibrations conditions present on board of the vehicles. MPS165 can be used as a switch to support intra-vehicle communications, interfacing the on board Intercom system

and providing voice/data access to HF/VHF radios. When inter facing VHF radios, MPS165 provides a packet data ser vice according to MIL-STD-188-220 data link protocol. MPS165 also allows establishing 155 Mbps fiber optic links towards other vehicles. MPS165 maintains all the main features of the MPS Family such as flood search routing algorithm, IP routing ser vices, full suppor t of militar y user ser vices (priority, pre-emption, connection security, etc), dynamic band allocation features, deliver y of guaranteed QoS to the different data and voice applications.
