With a network built with 20 to 30 units of industrial Ethernet switches, the X-ring redundant ring allows an auto recovery in less than 300ms when the network failed.

The X-Ring proprietary protocol incorporates both Coupling Ring and Dual Homing.

When there are more than one X-Ring group set up in a network, the Coupling Ring function ensures redundancy in the transmissions between the two ring groups.

The Dual Homing feature can ensure two X-Ring groups with redundant backup paths when connected to a backbone switch, and can be enabled in the switches to allow standby links to the upper level switch.

Other SNMP features include QoS for 4 queues, 801.q VLAN, IGMP snooping, query mode, SNTP and SMTP.

In an event of power failure and/or port down failure, the relay contact to the alarm system can immediately notify administrators by sending an email to a set of pre-defined addresses.
