Introduction
Net Optics Optical Bypass Switches provide a permanent and trouble-free access port for in-line network security and monitoring devices. .The Opti- cal Bypass Switch automatically switches network traffic through added IDP devices or bypasses devices that are about to be removed. .Prevent link failure when attached IDP devices lose power by powering the Bypass Switch and in-line device from the same power source. .
Uninterrupted traffic
The Optical Bypass Switch supports fail-open monitoring with any fiber IDP device when it shares the same power source as the IDP. .While the Optical Bypass Switch is receiving power, it diverts network traffic to attached IDP. In this state, all in-line traffic is routed directly to the IDP connected to the Opti- cal Bypass Switch. .
When the Optical Bypass Switch loses power, in-line traffic continues to flow through the network link, but is no longer routed through the device. .This al- lows the network devices to be removed and replaced without network down- time. Once power is restored to the Optical Bypass Switch, network traffic is seamlessly diverted to the IDP, allowing it to resume its critical functions..
Simply Plug It In
Each Bypass Switch includes all the cables and power supplies you need to quickly connect to an IDP..Three quick steps is all it takes to establish a secure connection point for inline devices..
