The 901D-CE-MCS-LAN is part of Curtiss-Wright’s 901D portfolio of ruggedized electronics cabinets, consoles, workstations, and full integration services for naval and other rugged applications deployed in harsh military environments.
Design Philosophy
The core of Curtiss-Wright’s Mission-Driven Enclosure design approach is partnership. Every program begins with collaboration, working with our customers to understand their specifications, operational environment, and program requirements. Combining our technical expertise with a deep commitment to collaboration, we help our customers accelerate development cycles, reduce risk, and ensure compliance with stringent military and industry standards. This approach ensures that we’re not just building an enclosure, but creating a solution tailored to the mission.
Product Overview
The 901D-CE-MCS-LAN is a customized hardware solution developed for the Machinery Control System (MCS) in assault ships. The MCS controls the major shipboard systems, including the highly automated propulsion, electric plant, and fuel fill systems.
Used as a Human Machine Interface (HMI) with a ship’s Local Area Network (LAN), the 901D-CE-MCS-LAN enclosure includes a COTS payload, repackaged for the stringent shipboard environment. The panel enclosure engages with the ship’s LAN via an Ethernet and power port for maintenance laptops. A speaker and microphone enable audio interfacing.
A member of the 901D portfolio of engineered enclosures and integrated systems, the 901D-CE-MCS-LAN offers flexibility for humans to interface with a ship’s LAN on any Navy platform.
