redundant standard connections
Response to failure
Double errors in the fault-tolerant system (i.e., CPUa1 and CPa 2) or in the standard system
(CPb1 and CPb2), and single errors in the standard system (CPUb1) lead to a total failure of
communication between the systems involved (see previous figure).
