Real-Time Ring™ Switch with 5 Ports
Fault-tolerant Ethernet Switches for Deterministic Systems
SIXNET Real-time Ring™ switches provide very fast, fault-tolerant network redundancy and prioritized
message delivery needed in critical real-time systems. Real-time Rings self-configure and just run, without the
complex configuration steps required by alternative solutions. This break-through product delivers reliability
and performance, saves you money, and makes your job easier.

Ultra-Dependable Results
Fault-tolerant Systems Survive Network Breaks
Real-time Rings have an alternative network path in constant readiness. When a network node or cable segment fails, the
Real-time Ring instantly redirects the traffic through the alternative path of the ring.
Achieve Deterministic Performance
Rings are simple by design. The alternative path is unique and well known and the action to take when a failure occurs is
predetermined. Ring Switches use this knowledge to deliver deterministic performance, with recovery times of 5 mS per
hop plus some overhead. (The link loss recovery is 30 mS plus 5 mS times the number of Real-time Ring Switches in the
ring. For example, 10 ring switches will recover in less than 80 mS.)
Avoid the High Cost and Complexity of Managed Switches
Real-time Ring Switches are the ideal way to achieve fault tolerance without the higher cost and complexity of Managed
Switches. In most situations, Real-time Ring Switches will do what you need with just the factory pre-configuration. A
simple Windows wizard (supplied at no cost) allows you to fine tune the performance if you like. These auto-configuring
switches eliminate the learning curve associated with more complex network devices. Now you can get the job done
without needing help from the "IT" department.
Priority Queuing For Real-time Performance
Customers tell us that the new security cameras added to their networks are slowing down their real-time data delivery.
Real-time Ring Switches can tag the camera ports as lower priority (or you can set the critical data as a higher priority).
In any event, the data will travel from switch to switch using priority queuing best suited for your situation. Real-time
Ring switches will cure your data overload headaches – without significant effort or expense!
Connect Independent Rings Together
Real-time Ring Switches may be members of more than one ring. This capability permits you to design fast, work-cell
oriented rings that are joined to each other to exchange information.
(Smaller rings recover faster and are inherently more reliable.)
Alarm Output and Modbus Avoid Future Problems
An “OK” contact assures that the redundant power inputs and the ring
(or rings) are complete. Modbus registers report the readiness of
individual ports to your SCADA or control system.
This is a SIXNET exclusive feature.
Real-time Switches Deliver Ultra-Reliability
Real-time Ring Switches have field-proven reliability of more than 1,000,000
hours MTBF. These SIXNET industrially hardened switches are certified to
survive in your harsh environment – Even outdoors in marine and military
applications.
SIXNET Industrial Switches Make Your Job Easier
In most applications, the factory pre-configuration will just work for you. Snap
these switches onto the rail, plug in your network cables, and sit back and watch
the data flow, year after year. These switches have been specifically designed to
make your job easier.
