However reliable a piece of network equipment is, there is always a chance that something will fail. When continuous network equipment uptime is an absolute necessity, Cornet Switching Systems' Router Protection Switch (RPS-24) provides that extra bit of security.
The RPS-24 is an intelligent protection switch targeted at backing up routers in dark or dim sites where continuous up-time is critical and rack space is at a premium. The 24-port design closely matches the number of inputs on a standard router.
These reliable switches use proven latching relay technology to ensure that connectivity is maintained even in the event of a complete power failure. The RPS-24 supports up to GigE Ethernet and is designed to automatically detect Ethernet link status.
Key features
• Auto detects link status of 10/100BaseT, switches up to GigE Ethernet • Front A/B connections – rear C connection • Compact chassis design – 1U high x 19” W • Latching relay technology • LEDs on front RJ-45 connectors indicate A/B switching status and Ethernet link pulse • Power failure alarms reported via control system • Rear plate offers two DB-9 connectors – one for power failure alarm and the other for craft port control • Dual redundant external power supply supports two units • Multiple support methods: SNMP, Telnet, Craft port, Web browser with intuitive GUI interface
A/B Switching is normally combined with the traditional manual patching system, providing a facility to enable sparing of DTE or DCE equipment through the use of a toggle switch and electromechanical latching copper relays.

The IMS 16 and 32 are relay-based, microprocessor-controlled devices that provide monitor and test access to a wide variety of interfaces, including DS-1, EIA-232, V.35, EIA-530, telephone, etc. in a single chassis.
The MTX Series of Matrix Switches brings the latest developments in switching technology to the Cornet Switching Systems line of switching products. Based on a single-stage, non-blocked any to any, crosspoint architecture, the MTX provides the reliability, availability, and fault tolerance required in today's fast-paced workplace. Available in a range of port capacities.
Cornet provides a complete range of video convergence products meeting the needs of miltary, transportation and commercial customers. Products include a range of encoders and decoders as well as VDOLink management softare and Analogue Video Matrix Switches.
In the MTX-256, Cornet Switching Systems combines unparalleled interface and speed support with a space efficiency no other matrix switch system can rival. With its compact switching engine, the MTX-256 requires only one standard equipment rack to support 2048 ports. A fully expanded system occupies half the engine space of a traditional matrix switch.
