An Ethernet switch or network switch is used to connect multiple computers with each other. The connection with a switch looks similar to an Ethernet hub in terms of appearance as it connects a LAN, but it has some kind of intelligence involved in the mechanism. A switch not only receives data packets but also has the ability to inspect them before allowing them to pass to the next connected computer. So, a switch is able to figure out the source and the contents of the data and identify the appropriate destination. As a result of this uniqueness, it sends the data to the relevant connected system only, thereby using less bandwidth at high-performance rates.

Network virtualization can be classified as external or internal virtual networks based on its implementation. In external network virtualization, one or more local networks in a corporate or data center is grouped or divided into virtual networks using virtual local area network (VLAN) and network switch technology. An example is the service-oriented network architecture solution from Cisco. Another example is the solutions based on Hewlett Packard's X Blade Virtualization technologies such as Virtual Connect, which combines local area networks (LANs) and storage networks under a single administered virtual network.

The top half displays the output of integrated algorithms applied to IP cameras; the lower section is further divided into three windows for proximity radar view, GNSS module output, and the road’s rear-view for other safety purposes. The drivers can select any particular window using a touch panel to display on full screen. In contrast, the other windows continue to run in the background and pop up an alert when necessary. A network switch is used for the terminal connection of all Ethernet-based modules such as cameras, proximity radar, and GNSS. Finally, a rugged PC is used to process all the cameras, proximity radar, and GNSS information. The power required to run the whole system is derived from the vehicle only.
