Carrier Access Axxius 800 Network Card User Manual


 
Axxius 800 - Release 2.2 7-9
DS3 Controller Card
Controller and DS3 Redundancy
switching the output paths so that the transmit path of the DS3 line is connected to the
standby Controller. Service interruptions (hits) will be taken on both the DS3 and low-
speed connections during this type of switch. However, since the standby Controller is
already framed up to the incoming signal, the hits are minimal.
The Axxius does not provide a non-revertive mode in electronic protection. No
automatic switchback will occur (as with a revertive Network Protection), but if the
currently active Controller malfunctions, etc. another protection switch will occur if the
mate is in a standby mode.
