Table 43: Expected range of typical availability
shows the range of availability that is typically
expected of communications systems:
High availability – general design considerations
High availability requires dedicated design diligence at multiple layers and with several
overlapping objectives (
Table 44: Measurements used for assessing availability expectations
).
Not only are failures at the device or subassembly level minimal, but also when there is a
failure, the design itself helps in many ways to alleviate the impact of the failure. For example,
the design tests itself frequently to detect problems before they become customer affecting. The
design isolates subassemblies that are not functioning properly, and runs verification tests on
