DS3 Fail-Over (DS3
Protection) Switch |
|
Product Overview
DS3 Fail-Over (DS3 Protection) Switch -
Upto 2 x DS3 Links
Orion’s DS3 Protection (Fail-Over) Switch allows the user to
connect a single DS3 line from the telephone company to an "active",
as well as to a "standby" DS3 terminal, such as data server, router
etc. at the customer premises. In the event of a terminal equipment
failure at the customer premises, the DS3 Protection (Fail-Over)
Switch automatically "switches" the DS3 line from the service provider
to the standby (working) DS3 terminal.
How it works
In the event of the failure of the data server / router connected
to the "A / active" port of the DS3 Protection (Fail-Over) Switch, the
DS3 line from the telephone company shall automatically be "switched"
to the data server / router on the "B / standby" port of the DS3
Protection (Fail-Over) Switch. This ensures minimum downtime - which
would have otherwise occurred due to equipment failure connected to
the "A / active" port. This equipment may be used to enhance the
reliability and the efficiency of the customer's data network.
Features
- Allows the user to connect a DS3 line from the
Telephone Company and to switch it automatically between an active
and a standby DS3 terminal at the customer premises
- LOS (Loss of DS3 Signal) is the switching
criterion between "Active" and "Standby" DS3 Ports
- Fail-Safe switching to Main (Port A) link in to
event of equipment or power failure
- Available in a single DS3 line and a two DS3 line
version
- Independent switching for each DS3 line (in the
2, DS3 line version)
- Built-in real-time clock / real-time logging
maintains a history of all events
- Remotely accessible over a TCP-IP networks.
Allows the user to access and carry out maintenance, or / and switch
the DS3 line between the "active" and "standby" DS3 terminals,
remotely, if required
- Dual AC (1+1 AC) or Dual - 48V DC (1+1 DC) power
input.
Benefits
- Allows the users to install and maintain active /
standby / duplicate customer premises data networks / data servers,
without bearing the recurring $$ expense of leasing additional
expensive DS3 lines from the telephone company
- Automatically switches the DS3 link from the
Telephone Company between the "active" and "standby" DS3 equipment
at the customer premises, according to the customer-defined
criterion
- Improves equipment and data security.
- Allows the user to co-locate the "backup /
standby" equipment in a different room / building and prevent any
data loss arising out of conditions of natural calamity such as
fire, flooding etc
- Increases the reliability of the customer's data
/ IT networks without having to bear the recurring and additional
cost of leasing additional DS3 lines from the telephone company. The
equipment may be used to create secondary / backup systems at the
customer premises to provide virtually uninterrupted service.
Application Note
The DS3 Fail-Over Switch should be
used when the customer wishes to connect redundant (active and
standby) DS3 equipment (such as Routers) at the customers premises to
a single DS3 service line from the telephone company.
The DS3 Fail-Over Switch shall
automatically switch the DS3 service line from the telephone company
between the ACTIVE DS3 data server / router and the STANDBY DS3 data
server / router. Should and whenever the ACTIVE DS3 data server /
router fail (or be removed from service), the DS3 line from the
telephone company automatically switches to the STANDBY DS3 data
server / router without requiring any customer or user intervention.
The DS3 Fail-Over Switch may also be accessed
remotely by the user to allow forced / manual switching between the
two DS3 terminals through user executable software commands using
Telnet.
