Take a look at our new technology called CAS (Critical Application System)! This new switching architecture has been introduced by USC to provide a critical new link for both satellite and communication applications. Some companies respond to change, others instigate it. Universal Switching Corporation has never been happy standing still. Time and time again, we have sought to push back the boundaries of automated switching technology. We participate in many industry tradeshows to help introduce and showcase new products. Also, we're part of a new technology consortium call LXI. This consortium is working to develop a standard for new LAN controlled test products. Universal Switching is planning to introduce LXI products by 2Q2009.

Some of our latest products being introduced are new low-cost video routers, the VSU1, DVSU1, VSU2, HDVSU, plus other similar units. Also new are the latest "E" versions of the popular S2560, S2561 and S2562 systems. The "E" version adds a reciently designed high capacity hot-swap power section for high reliability and ease of maintenance. Our new "SS" product offering makes it simple to specify a system on your own. See our new SS2 product section.

We introduced our new rugged 11-slot VXIbus mainframe unit in 2006. It is specifically designed for various rugged and industrial applications that demand the most of VXIbus designs. (more)
