The TTEEvaluation System 100 Mbit/s supports 100Base-TX Ethernet and enables hard real-time communication using a software implementation of the TTEthernet protocol on the end system computer. The TTEEvaluation System offers all TTEthernet features and supports the development of distributed real-time applications at entry-level pricing. The software-based TTEthernet implementation of this evaluation system uses regular Ethernet controllers and Intel Atom CPUs, showcasing that real-time Ethernet can be implemented on virtually any Ethernet-compliant hardware
TTEEvaluation System 100 Mbit/s enables mixed real-time and non-real-time Ethernet communication. It consists of a TTEDevelopment Switch with 8 x 100 Mbit/s ports and two Linux-based End System PCs with software implementation of the TTEthernet protocol as Linux driver. The system is extendable by additional TTEDevelopment Switches in cascading mode, TTEEnd Systems or standard non-real-time Ethernet devices, such as PCs with Ethernet interface.
