MITR 5520 - Copper Fibre Channel TAP & Recorder
The Modular Instrumentation TAP Recorder (MITR) is a high-bandwidth, high-capacity IRIG 106 Chapter 10 data recorder/ publisher with a TAP Interface Module (TIM) & multiple Tera-Bytes of high-speed removable storage. MITR is suitable for a wide range of data recording requirements in harsh & demanding environments.
The Removable Memory Module, RMM, consists of 1 to 3 drives in a single carrier supporting recording bandwidths to 1.5GBps and up to 48TB. With data security and throughput in mind, 3 independent data paths (from inputs to disks) allow individual data channels to be written to individual drives. Each carrier includes a built-in power and a 10GE download port eliminating the need for expensive, standalone debrief stations.
MITR 5520 TAP Interface Module (TIM) provides up to 8 channels of 1G copper Fibre Channel using Quadrax connectors . Input channels can be filtered, recorded and published while mirrored outputs provide full active TAP capabilities. TAP components are powered via primary or auxiliary 28VDC.
MITR also contains a Layer 2/3 Managed Ethernet Switch with (4) external interfaces, a GPS receiver & IRIG Time Code Generator. The hardware based IEEE-1588v2 time engine provides multiple Grand Master, Master, Slave & Transparent clock capabilities. The 4 external Ethernet interfaces can be used for IRIG 106 Chapter 10 data publishing, command/control or as a fully capable Layer 2/3 Managed Switch. Any/all external Ethernet interfaces can also be recorded. A CH7/HDLC PCM Encoder/Decoder provides connection to a Telemetry transmitter.
