The MicroMax family of Rugged Switches, comprised of the M-Max SW208SW216 and SW21X/PS, is a lineup of ruggedized Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2+ Managed Switches providing reliable operation in tough environments. Each can accept a wide range of power and each is tested and guaranteed for temperatures of −40 to +75°C. Their rugged enclosures are designed according to the VITA75 footprint.

The M-Max SW208 has 8x 10/100/1000 Mbps copper twisted pair ports while the M-Max SW216 offers 16x Gigabit Ethernet ports. The M-Max SW21X/PS provides even more opportunities and can be equipped with either 12x, 14x or 16x Gigabit Ethernet ports.

The M-Max SW21X/PS is in compliance with MIL‑STD‑810G and MIL‑STD‑461F and its embedded power supply is in compliance with MIL‑STD‑704F and MIL‑STD‑1275D. Extended salty fog protection is also available for the M-Max SW21X/PS upon request. Support for control and management is through a web interface, and host processor access through a Command Line Interface (CLI).
