7.4.1

Single card set redundancy

In this scenario, each matrix contains one fiber-optic Linking card set (see Figure 30: Ring
topology: single card set redundancy ).
This approach still affords fiber connection redundancy since each rear card houses two
fiber-optic transceivers.
Note: In the absence of an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS), this configuration will not protect
against loss of the node or the matrix itself.
7.4.1.1
When there is no break in the fiber connections the fiber audio will be routed using the
primary ring.
If there is any connection failure on the primary ring and the secondary ring is intact then the
fiber audio routing will move to the secondary ring.
