Figure 1. Protected Network Station
With two transceivers and power supplies installed, the unit will con-
tinue to communicate even if a failure occurs in one of the transceivers
or its associated power supply. This capability is important in mis-
sion-critical applications where uninterrupted service is required.
At the time of publication, the following transceivers are supported by
the Protected Network Station:
• MDS iNET/iNET-II Series Access Point
• MDS iNET/iNET-II Series Dual Gateway Remote
• MDS iNET/iNET-II Series Ethernet Bridge Remote
• MDS iNET/iNET-II Series Serial Remote
• MDS entraNET (Access Point only)
• MDS Mercury (Access Point only)
The unit is equipped with alarm connections on the rear panel which
activate whenever the standby transceiver is put online. These are “dry”
(isolated) alarm contacts that may be connected to customer-supplied
external alarm equipment, such as a lamp or sounding device.
