RPS-24

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
