Network Interfacer 10BASE-T1S
Early Access Product
The Technica Engineering´s Network Interfacer 10BASE-T1S is a solution built on the 10BASE- T1S Ethernet standard, enabling efficient multi- drop communication over a single pair of cables. This technology simplifies automotive networking by reducing cabling complexity while ensuring reliable data transmission. The Interfacer bridges the gap between traditional point-to-point and Bus topologies, offering integration across different network infrastructures.
License options
The Network Interfacer is available in two flexible licensing options. The Core License is included with the device purchase, providing everything needed to get started. For added features like Multi-node Injector and Switch functionalities, the device can be upgraded to the Advanced License, available separately.
With both basic and advanced configuration options, the 10BASE-T1S Network Interfacer adapts to a wide range of applications, providing flexibility and control in every scenario.
Configuration
The 10BASE-T1S Network Interfacer is a versatile and user-friendly solution, designed to support both basic and advanced network configurations. Right out of the box, it operates with a plug-and-play approach, integrating smoothly into existing systems without requiring extensive setup. For simple applications where a single 10BASE-T1S port is sufficient, DIP switches provide a straightforward way to configure essential PLCA settings.
For more complex setups, users can access a comprehensive set of features through the device’s web-based GUI. This interface allows configuration of advanced parameters, such as Node ID roles (coordinator or follower), node count, transmit opportunity, burst mode, and bus termination for optimized network performance. Additionally, traffic monitoring, port mirroring, and Multi-node Injector and Switch modes further enhance its capabilities for analysis and troubleshooting in complex networks.
Early Access Product
An Early Access Product (EAP) is a nearly finished product available to selected users before its official release. The product may remain in this status, because it includes a pre-market component (PHY/Switches) that is not fully certified, which restricts the entire product from achieving CE certification or equivalent regulatory approval. This means, EAP is still a prototype, but in a very advanced state. Small adaptations are still possible, but no critical changes are expected and general development is closed. The software includes almost all planned features. Documentation as e.g. User Manual is available and completed.
The Network Interfacer is ideal for automotive testing and simulation environments where seamless data communication is critical. It can be used in automotive electronics for in-depth analysis, performance monitoring, and troubleshooting. The device is also well-suited for research and development projects focused on next-generation automotive networking. Additionally, it can be applied in system integration for building expansive, scalable automotive networks.
