JetNet 3006-RJ / M12 supports Rapid Super Ring

Ring technology is most commonly adopted to provide link redundancy for industrial applications. A ring topology is formed by connecting switches into a ring or a loop. One of the connected switches is selected to be RM (Ring Manager), which manages the redundant path. Korenix redundant ring technology, RSR, is designed for rapid failure recovery, within 5ms, and helps you to select RM and manage the redundant path automatically.

JetNet 4506-M12, JetNet 4506-RJ, JetNet 3006-M12, JetNet 3006-RJ support RSR. 4506 series are managed switches with full RSR features, such as enable/disable ring, select ring id, alter roles between RM or ring member, and change ring ports and so on.

Note: Only use ring-enabled switches when connecting switches into a ring. Korenix RSR guarantees fast failiure recovery while ensures the network work without looping problem.

JetNet 3006-RJ, 3006-M12 are ring switches and preconfigured to act as ring member without the need of any user configuration. The ring configuration depends on the connected RM, such as JetNet 4506-M12, 4506-RJ or other managed JetNet series products. 3006 detects the ring id and the status by listening the RM's ring packets. If 3 continuous ring packets of a specific ring id are received, 3006 join the ring and start RSR algorithm. If more than 3 ring packets of the ring are lost, 3006 leaves the ring and goes back to listening state.

The default configuration for each model is listed below:
