Engineered for Excellence
From aerospace to industrial applications, our products are designed to deliver unmatched performance and reliability in the most demanding environments.
Made in the USA with Aerospace-Grade Quality
Manufactured in a facility that adheres to the stringent AS9100 Aerospace Management System, Ethos Lite guarantees the highest level of quality and reliability.
Rugged Reliability
Designed for demanding aerospace environments, Ethos Lite is built to withstand harsh conditions, ensuring reliable network connectivity even in the most challenging situations.
Unmatched Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) Optimization
Ethos Lite is engineered to be the smallest, lightest, and most power-efficient Ethernet switch on the market, ideal for space-constrained applications like UAVs and aerospace systems.
The GadgetSmyth Advantage
The parent design for Ethos Lite was originally designed with Size Weight and Power (SWaP) constraints for an aerospace application.
The parent design for Ethos Lite was originally designed with Size Weight and Power (SWaP) constraints for an aerospace application. The project required a tiny ethernet switch in order to allow multiple network devices on an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) sharing one data link. We searched for something that was small enough, light enough, and rugged enough. Nothing that we could find met our requirements for the application, so we decided to make our own.
We settled on 10/100mb because this is typically more than fast enough for supplying data to radio systems on UAV’s which are usually limited on the order of the 10’s of Mbits. This enabled us to put more than one IP-capable sensor onto a single UAV and communicate with all of them through one data link. Knowing how hard it had been for us to find a switch this size we decided to take our original rugged design and create a commercial version of it, and the Ethos Lite was born.
