To support the autonomous vehicle industry, Intrepid Control Systems, Inc. introduced RAD-Moon Duo, for connecting to two ports of Automotive Ethernet 100BASE-T1 to two ports of a 4-wire 10/100 Ethernet (100BASE-TX). Automotive Ethernet is required for high-speed sensors such as LIDAR and RADAR used in autonomous systems. The RAD-Moon Duo reduces the cost of autonomous systems by saving integration time, physical size, and cost per channel of sensors.

The RAD-Moon Duo includes features not yet available in Automotive Ethernet converters by including a high-speed USB interface for configuration and monitoring, a stand-alone mode for simulations, and a LED membrane for live network status. The device is based on two Marvell 88Q1010 Ethernet PHYs (physical layer). Finally, it has rugged packaging for use in in-vehicle autonomous vehicles.
