Dataprobe's Redundancy Switching System (RSS) provides reliable switchover of communications circuits for line protection and equipment redundancy applications. Create fault-tolerant systems with either simultaneous (gang) switching or independent control of each A/B switch.
These physical layer switches allow redundant systems to be automatically, remotely or manually operated, insuring maximum uptime for critical communication circuits.
Relay based switch modules insure communications, even when power is removed or control connections are down. This fail soft technology is optimized for applications including:
|
|
Network operations require 24/7/365 non-stop uptime. Insure your network uptime with Dataprobe redundancy solutions.
A/B switch cards are available in standard communication interfaces. Each A/B switch card includes the proper connectors; no additional interface modules are required. A/B switch cards support all the leads in their respective interfaces, making them ideal for a wide variety of circuit arrangements.

|
This control card provides simple web browser control for a single A/B switch or an unlimited number of ganged (simultaneously controlled) A/B switches. | ||||||||
| IOC-16-R
|
The IOC-16-R provides wiring access for external contact control and switch card status monitoring. It can be installed along with a IPC-16-R Network Control access card or with a IOC-16-R gang access card. | ||||||||
| IOC-3-R
|
Model IOC-3-R provides three contact closure inputs and status relay outputs for RSS-3 and RSS-16 systems for single switch or multi-switch ganged (simultaneous controlled) system. Up to three A/B switch cards can be independantly controlled. | ||||||||
| IOC-1-R | Replaced by IOC-3-R | ||||||||
| A/B Switch Cards | |||||||||
| AB-232-R
| The AB-232-R Auto Switch and Monitor card provides real-time lead sensing, with alarm generation and conditional auto switching based on user programmed conditions. The Auto Switch and Monitor card continuously monitors and displays the status of the following leads in either RS-232 or RS-530 (balanced) signals: TD, RD, RTS, CTS, DSR, DTR, DCD. | ||||||||
| AB-D9-R
| Model AB–D9 provides A/B switching for all 9 leads of a 9 pin D–Subminiature connector. It can be used for communications circuits, up to 9 leads and maximum data rates of 1.5 MBps. All 9 pins supported. | ||||||||
| AB-D15-R
| Model AB–D15 provides A/B switching for all 15 leads of a 15 pin D–Subminiature connector. It can be used for communications circuits, up to 15 leads and maximum data rates of 1.5 MBps. All 15 pins supported. | ||||||||
| AB-D25R
| Model AB–D25 provides A/B switching for all 25 leads of a 25 pin D–Subminiature connector. It can be used with RS-232, RS-485 and other interfaces with cable adaptors, up to 25 leads and maximum data rates of 1.5 MBps All 25 pins supported. | ||||||||
| AB-2RJ8-R
|
| ||||||||
| AB-NET-R
| Model AB–NET provides A/B switching for all unshielded twisted pair network applications up to 1G (10/100/1000). All 8 leads of the modular jack are switched. This model is being replaced by the AB-2NET-R. Available stock only. | ||||||||
| AB-2NET-R
| Model AB–2NET provides A/B switching for 2 ganged circuits. All unshielded twisted pair network applications up to 1G (10/100/1000). All 8 leads of the modular jack are switched. Both switches operate simultaneously at all times. | ||||||||
| AB-2BNC-R
|
| ||||||||
| AB-M34-R
| Model AB–34 provides A/B switching for all 19 leads of a 34 pin Winchester connector. It can be used for V.35 and other interfaces, up to 19 leads and maximum data rates of 1.5 MBps. | ||||||||
| AB-T50-R
| Model AB–T50 provides A/B switching for all 50 pins of the interface. All applications up to T-1/E-1 speeds supported. All 50 leads of the connector are switched. |
| Dataprobe offers a variety of control options to facilitate design of reliable redundancy solutions. Each control card can be installed in either the RSS-16 or RSS-3 to provide either individual or gang control.
| |
| IPC-16 Network and Serial Control Card
The IPC-16 allows control resolution down to the A/B switch level. Each A/B switch can be individually managed, or gang switched as required. Both serial and network interfaces provide communication with user friendly menus or web browser interfaces. Each A/B card in the system can be named for easy identification. Cards can be grouped and switched together or independently. For system developers, the RSS series offers direct command control, both via the serial port and via UDP network messaging. This allows direct program control by Network Management Systems, customized user interfaces, or easily integrated into OEM systems and software. RSS-16 Chassis offers Dual Redundant IPC-16 controllers for the most reliable configuration. |
|
| IPC-1 Gang Network Control Card Web, SNMP, TCP Messaging, AutoPing For gang applications in either the RSS-3 or RSS-16 chassis, the IPC-1 provides web control, setup and management. Point your browser to the IP address assigned to the switch, enter a security code and click on the button to operate the switch. |
|
| IOC-16 I/O Control Card
Use external relay closures or discrete inputs to integrate A/B Fallback switching into your network environment. Each switch is independently controlled with its own set of control inputs. For status information, a relay output is provided for positive switch confirmation. |
|
| IOC-3 I/O Control Card
Use external relay closures or discrete inputs to integrate A/B Fallback switching into your network environment. This card is ideal for Gang Controlled switching, or independant control of up to three A/B Switch cards. Terminal blocks are used to connect the control and feedback circuits. |
