Cabletron Systems Ethernet Hubs manual Hub Redundancy Management

Hub Redundancy Management

primary pathway fails. This allows the primary hub device to repeat data packet information on an alternative module port if a problem exists on the primary port.

Although circuit connections typically occur between devices in the same room, the circuit connections can also occur over longer distances between floors or buildings (with the proper FDDI cables and associated modules). Refer to Figure 4-2for an illustration of a typical redundant cable circuit connection between two redundant hub devices.
