Dual Cable RIO Configuration
The following figure is an example of a dual cable Quantum RIO configuration.
NOTE: The dual cable option is provided for systems that require added protection
against cable breaks or damaged connectors. With two cables connected between
the host and each node, no single cable break will disrupt communications.
Hot Standby System
The Quantum Hot Standby system is designed for use with remote I/O networks. A
Quantum Hot Standby system may be set-up using single or dual cable
configurations (refer to the following two figures).
