Efficient and reliable solution to master the challenges of automotive networks within and between ECUs, including off-the-shelf, future-proof, and backwards compatible solutions for domain, centralised, and zonal architectures.

Highlights

EB zoneo SwitchCore

• Intelligent automotive-grade switch firmware to handle the ever-increasing network functions
• Perfectly handles complex network configuration, routing, QoS, firewall, device authentication, and time synchronisation

EB zoneo SwitchCore Shield

• EB zoneo SwitchCore Shield inherits all features supported by EB zoneo SwitchCore with extra cybersecurity protection from Argus Ethernet IDPS, a solution which helps to perform deep packet inspection of the Ethernet frames up to the application layer.
• Provides a powerful solution to software-defined E/E architectures which require high performance, flexibility, and strong protection against cyberthreats.

EB zoneo VSwitch 

• Virtualisation module that mimics switch functionalities to provide fast and reliable communication between virtual machines and Ethernet networks
• Provides communication between VMs within the ECUs or HPC and between VMs and the Ethernet network Supports VMs using Classic AUTOSAR and VMs using Adaptive AUTOSAR (Linux)

Benefits

• Future-proof solution- Enables the introduction of new vehicle functions that require high-speed, reliable, and secure in-vehicle networks, and copes with future challenges of distributed zonal architectures
• Highly optimised solution– Optimises computational resource consumption by offloading network-related tasks to specific hardware units, maximising the use of hardware features
• Reduce total costs- Accelerates the transition to service-oriented communication and facilitates the transition from domain to centralised and zonal architectures
• Tried and tested- Road-tested for a prominent line of production vehicles, supports leading OEM platforms such as Volkswagen and GM
• Deep relation with hardware vendors- Supports a broad range of hardware platforms such as Marvell, NXP, Realtek, and Renesas

EB zoneo SwitchCore

• More computational resources- High-level network functions are directly executed on the switches
• Fast startup and safer system recovery- Assures independent startup of switches and reduces interdependency on the microcontroller unit
• Efficient implementation- Our software implementation is tightly coupled with hardware features.

EB zoneo SwitchCore Shield

• Optimised solution– Offers a broad spectrum of various pre-integrated features simultaneously keeping high performance and a small software footprint
• Early detection and prevention of unauthorised traffic– Executes cybersecurity protection directly on the switch hardware, thus leading to an early and extensive detection of cyberthreats.

EB zoneo VSwitch

• Reduces software complexity– Mastering the challenges of increased software complexity with hardware virtualisation
• Short development cycles– There is a virtually unlimited number of connectors for VMs. Additional VMs can be added later. The connecting interface drivers are available for Linux, Android, and Classic AUTOSAR.
