Need something smaller? Check out UbiSwitch BaseBoard Mini

The UbiSwitch Baseboard is a compact connectivity breakout and development board for the BotBlox UbiSwitch Module that provides 8 x 10/100/1000Mbps (gigabit) ethernet ports on Molex Picoclasp headers and 3 x 10G SFP cages. This allows UbiSwitch to be quickly tested and deployed in a networking application.

This solution, when combined with the UbiSwitch Module, provides an unprecendented level of networking density, designed to enable high throughput data links in space limited applications such as inside drones or compact robotics.

The UbiSwitch Baseboard contains magnetics on all 8 gigabit ethernet ports for full signal isolation. The board is powered by a pigtail to Molex PicoClasp that can accept a voltage range from 7 to 60V, with reverse polarity and overvoltage protection, making it suitable to be run direct from an unclean bus voltage. Voltage regulation onboard the baseboard ensures that the UbiSwitch module receives a clean power voltage.

The Molex PicoClasp connectors feature a positive locking feature, an improvement over Molex PicoBlade, making it more suitable for vibration sensitive environments.

The design files of the UbiSwitch baseboard are available publicly so this design can serve as a reference design for custom boards using the UbiSwitch module.

INCLUDED CABLES

We include everything you need to make this board work out of the box. Each board ships with:

2 x Molex PicoClasp to Tinned Leads, 4 way, 400mm (UL1061, 28AWG Stranded) (BB-PCTL1-4-0.4) (Power Cable)

1 x Molex PicoClasp to Tinned Leads, 9 way, 400mm (UL1061, 28 AWG Stranded) (BB-PCTL1-9-0.3) (LED Cable)

Need a 10G Copper SFP Module? We also sell those here.

Need NDAA compliance?

We offer a fully NDAA compliant version of this hardware, simply select the option at the top of the product page.

Our NDAA version has the same design as the base product, but uses a supply chain based outside of the four adversary countries listed in Executive Order EO13981 (these are Iran, Russian, China and North Korea). 

The NDAA compliant version is part of our first stage to move away from a Chinese based supply chain, to meet the needs of our customers who must ensure NDAA and EO13981 compliance in their UAS systems. Read more about our efforts here.

• The boards are manufactured in Thailand
• The active chips are sourced from either Digi-Key, Mouser, or directly from our European distributors
• The passive chips are sourced only from Digi-Key or Mouser
• All passive components are sourced from Digi-Key or Mouser.

This allows our customers to build NDAA and EO13981 compliant UAS systems with no extra work. We are able to provide full Certificate of Conformities, Bill of Materials and Traceability statements to ensure this. Please note, there is no design difference between this board, and our standard SwitchBlox. 

The NDAA compliant version can be used to build BlueUAS compliant UAS systems. Read more about this here.
