Summary:
Datacom Systems Inc. DURAstream™DS-4000 Bypass Switch is a 1Gbps
intelligent external active bypass that enables plug and play connectivity which
includes an auto heartbeat and requires no additional drivers to be installed on
any connected appliance.
The DS-4000 consists of four 1Gbps segments which can support four network
segments and four appliances. In our example below, we show two network
segments being connected with two systems (typically IPS) using a DS-4000.
If one of the links connected to an appliance segment goes down, the DS-4000
will directly connect the network ports on the segment and bypass the appliance.
This will ensure that the network segment will remain connected even if the
appliance on the segment goes down.
