Turbo-Chain

Turbo-Chain offers the possibility of creating multiple

redundant networks without the limitations of ring

technology. Turbo-Chain can be simply congured by

dening two end-points in a segment. This means you can

connect or extend existing redundant networks. When

compared with traditional ring coupling or a network

re-design, Turbo-Chain is more exible as well as being

more cost efcient and it has signicant savings potential

when compared to the effort for network restructuring

and re-cabling. In addition Turbo Chain also supports

IEEE 802.1w/D RSTP and STP protocols.

• Flexible network topology

• Unlimited and simple network expansion

• Quick troubleshooting (recovery time < 20 ms)

• Cost-effective congurations

Port trunking for exible connections

IEEE 802.3ad (LACP, Link Aggregation Control Protocol)

permits exible network connections and a redundant path

for critical applications. It provides the means for a user to

link via a higher bandwidth over the PremiumLine managed

switches by combining more ports into a trunk group.

Dual-Ring

In a Dual-Ring, two neighbouring rings are connected

with one another using one switch, without the need for

additional ports or cabling. This conguration reduces

the total number of ports and saves cabling costs, as an

additional primary and back-up line is not needed.
