Enable IP Traffic Routing Aboard Spacecraft

Internet Routing in Space (IRIS) is a reconfigurable IP router for onboard spacecraft use. Cisco IRIS can help your agency design, manufacture, and integrate communications satellite payload subsystems to enable the onboard routing of IP traffic along with providing:

• Higher terminal data rates; lower terminal costs, size, and power
• A significant increase in terminal performance and system capacity
• Single-hop, full mesh terminal-to-terminal connectivity
• Greater system performance and capacity, extended global reach

The IRIS concept has sparked an industrywide move to incorporate IP routing aboard commercial spacecraft. IRIS will revolutionize the way future communication networks will be designed, built, and provisioned.
