Connectors
The S

ARD
provides two RJ45 connectors to establish the connection to the network. For a redun-
dant connection a network cable should be plugged into each of the plugs [1] and [2]. These network cables
should connect on the other side to a redundant network. In case of a failure of one connection the other con-
nection will take over the complete network traffic. If a redundant connection is not required either plug [1] or
plug [2] can be used for the connection. Both plugs use the same IP and MAC address, so no configuration in
regard of the used plug is required.
