Techaya MILTECH 9012C Achieves VICTORY Certification

The Vehicular Integration for C4ISR/EW Interoperability (VICTORY) specification was developed as a standard for US Army vehicles to combat a history of the “bolt-on” approach when adding new communications systems and electronics—systems that were often siloed and had no interoperability between them. This earlier approach often led to duplicate hardware, little future-proofing and  a lack […]

Ethernet on the Move – Connecting the Mobile Military Platform – White Paper

Ethernet is the well-established standard in government, enterprise, and home applications. It is rapidly becoming the standard for military and other rugged applications due to proven interoperability, reliability, and speed. Historically, dedicated bus architectures have been used in military applications, resulting in heavy and somewhat inflexible systems. Ethernet has been shown as a viable alternative for a number […]

Join MilSource at AUVSI XPONENTIAL 2019

MilSource will be returning for a 5th year to AUVSI XPONENTIAL taking place in Chicago from April 30th to May 2, 2019.  We’re looking forward to meeting familiar faces and making new acquaintances at our booth #3210. As a returning exhibitor, it’s fun to watch the continual growth in unmanned applications. The first event we […]

Fiber and copper working together for today’s Ethernet backbones

In all mobile military and airborne platforms, the transition from mechanical systems to electronically controlled systems is taking place. As the electronics content continues to grow, so do the processing loads that happen on every platform. Embedded computers are rising in sophistication as they need to support sensors, radar, video streams, and remote-control functions. Distributed […]

Ethernet Powering Devices

Power over Ethernet, or POE, is a technology that enables a single cable to provide both data connection and electrical power to networked pieces of equipment such as sensors, IP video cameras, and even wireless mesh nodes. POE works across standard network cabling (i.e. CAT5) to supply power directly from the data ports to which […]

MILTECH 309 Provides Fast and Reliable Communications in Industrial Automation

Autometrix is an industrial cutting system out of Northern California. A little over a year ago, their electrical engineer, Tyler Green contacted MilSource. Tyler was looking for a basic, board-level Fast Ethernet switch that he could integrate in to his on-board electronic package. The MILTECH 309 fit the bill. Because of its small size, ruggedized […]
