Automotive Ethernet

Connectivity, big data and autonomous driving require the ability to transmit large amounts of data in in-vehicle communication networks.

Automotive Ethernet offers the possibility to adapt a well-known and proven technology of the consumer electronics sector for the automotive industry. Ethernet offers high bandwidth and flexibility at low cost. In addition to the connection of high-resolution image sensors and radars, Ethernet is used as a backbone connection between high-performance computers within the vehicle.

The Ethernet hardware for the automobile

The product spectrum of GÖPEL electronic ranges from powerful automotive Ethernet controllers with a variety of onboard protocols and onboard functionalities to multibus controllers and simple media converters, which only convert the physical layer between conventional Ethernet and automotive Ethernet.

 

Automotive Ethernet Controller

G PXIe 6242

  • available as PXI Express card
