The figure below shows the system-redundant connection of nine IO devices using three
switches. This configuration, for example, allows you to arrange IO devices in several
cabinets.

PN/IO with system redundancy
Note
Logical structure and topology
The topology itself does not determine if IO devices are connected one-sided or in a
configuration with system redundancy. This is determined in thje course of configuration.
You can configure the IO devices in the first figure as one-sided instead of the system-
redundant setup.
