Redundant Protocol
The Moxa PRP/HSR RedBox supports four redundant protocols: PRP, HSR, Coupling*, and QuadBox*.
Depending on the topology of your network, you can choose one of these redundancy protocols. All four
protocols support a 0 ms recovery time.
PRP:
Copies of each packet are sent from the source to the destination via two LANs.
HSR:
Copies of each packet are sent from the source to destination via an HSR ring.
Coupling:
Coupling is used to connect PRP and HSR*.
QuadBox:
QuadBox is used to connect two HSR rings*
*Only available on the PT-G503-PHR-PTP series..
