MOXA CN2610-8-2AC Terminal Server
Dual-LAN Redundancy
The CN2600 has two separate LAN ports that can be connected to separate LAN networks. Dual-LAN redundancy involves setting up two separate physical networks to connect the PC host with the CN2600 (the PC host also requires two LAN cards). If one connection fails, the PC host can still communicate with your serial devices over the alternative LAN connection.
Redundant COM
Moxa offers “Redundant COM,” an easy-to-use application to provide an alternative solution for network redundancy. When the CN2600 receives a data packet from a connected device, two identical data packets are sent over two independent LAN connections to prevent lost data packets if one LAN connection becomes unavailable. The CN2600 software is programmed to automatically discard duplicate data packets.
Dual-host Redundancy
The CN2600’s dual-LAN cards can also set up “dual-host” redundancy. In this case, both networks (LAN A and LAN B in the figure) are connected to different hosts. If either of the two hosts shuts down unexpectedly, the other host will still be able to communicate with serial devices connected to the CN2600.
Dual-AC Model Supported
Dual-power redundancy uses two power inputs and redundant internal power supplies to ensure that all of the CN2600’s functions will be available, even during power circuit failures.
