At Orion, your embedded solutions partner, we offer a variety of switches for our military and industrial customers. We understand that these industrial customers require different products compared to networking products found through standard retail channels.
Orion Offers Two Types of Compact PCI Switches
- Ethernet – Ethernet switches have been used in networks for decades. These switches act as a sort of gatekeeper, controlling the flow of traffic into and out of a corporate network. At Orion, we offer a variety of ethernet switches to meet your needs. Contact our sales team to learn about various ethernet switches that are available for purchase.
- PCIe – Our PCIe switches allow you to have various port configurations with ease. All of our PCIe switches offer what is called Hot-Plug support, as well as Peer-to-Peer data transfer. PCIe switches allow our customers to eliminate some of the electronics and cost of clustering machines, while also providing lower latency than ethernet.
