BRIC-Link II connecons are able to ulize , allowing users running in “Dual Network” mode to
designate a primary and secondary network. This secondary network (e.g. wireless 4G) serves as a backup to the
primary in case of network failure. Hotswap is a System Seng in BRIC-Link II.
A typical usage scenario would be a codec that is acve 24/7 providing a STL connecon as shown in Figure 67.
As it is oen impraccal (and expensive) to run audio over a 4G cellular network 24/7, ensures that the
connecon priorizes a dierent network (e.g. an ethernet connecon). In this example, in the event of
a network failure, would divert from the primary connecon to the secondary 4G cellular network as a
backup. When the primary network is restored, will switch back to it and connue to hold the secondary
network in a backup state. Any supported network type (e.g. Ethernet, Wi-Fi, 4G cellular) can be designated as the
primary or secondary backup network.
Since is an alternate mode of the Comrex reliability layer, connecons between codecs must be
established via CrossLock in order to use it.
Please note: Codecs on must be running at least 4.3-level rmware in order to operate
.
It is imperave to note that even a network in a backup state sll ulizes a small amount of data. This is important
when considering using cellular networks. For 24/7 operaon, this data will total less than 0.5 GB for a typical
month of usage, assuming no acvity occurs. If the funcon engages to a cellular network, much
more data will be used while the primary network is down. Regardless of how is used or set up, Comrex
assumes no liability for data overage charges, even in the event of soware bugs or any other failure of hardware or
soware. It is enrely the responsibility of the user to monitor any metered data usage.
