Description
Redundancy is an important issue for industrial networks, and
various types of solutions have been developed to provide alternative network
paths when equipment or software failures occur. “Watchdog” hardware is
installed to utilize redundant hardware, and a “Token”- switching software
mechanism is applied. The CN2600 terminal server uses its built-in Dual-LAN
ports to implement a “Redundant COM” mode that keeps your applications running
uninterrupted.
Dual-LAN Redundancy
The CN2600 has two separate LAN ports that can be connected
to separate LAN networks. Dual-LAN redundancy involves setting up two separate
physical networks to connect the PC host with the CN2600 (the PC host also
requires two LAN cards). If one connection fails, the PC host can still
communicate with your serial devices over the alternative LAN connection.
Redundant COM
Moxa offers “Redundant COM,” an easy-to-use application to
provide an alternative solution for network redundancy. When the CN2600
receives a data packet from a connected device, two identical data packets are
sent over two independent LAN connections to prevent lost data packets if one
LAN connection becomes unavailable. The CN2600 software is programmed to
automatically discard duplicate data packets.
Dual-host Redundancy
The CN2600’s dual-LAN cards can also be used to set up “dual-host”
redundancy. In this case, both networks (LAN A and LAN B in the figure) are
connected to two different hosts. If either of the two hosts shuts down
unexpectedly, the other host will still be able to communicate with serial
devices connected to the CN2600.
Dual-AC Model Supported
Dual-power redundancy uses two power inputs and redundant internal power supplies to ensure that all of the CN2600’s functions will be available, even in the event of power circuit failures.
You can also find the CN2610-8-2AC, CN2610-16, CN2650I-8, and CN2650-8 models in the Serial-to-Ethernet Converters.
