The SM-2712
Copper or Fiber Ethernet
Link Protector provides a fully managed automatic
link backup capability for up to twelve (12)
"mission-critical" 1000BaseF/1000BaseT/100BaseTX/10BaseT
Ethernet links. The system protects vital
connections to servers, routers, firewalls, and other key Ethernet
devices that require fail-safe link operation. The
SM-2712 operates by monitoring a primary link and, in the event of
a failure, automatically switching to the backup link.
Switching can also be controlled externally via network, console,
or front panel commands. The unit combines
electronic and relay technologies to provide for fast switchover
while providing continuous traffic on loss of power using Shore
Microsystems' Straight Through Wire
®
technology.
