RSS - Line Redundancy System
RSS - Equipment Redundancy System
Reliable Network Switching
Dataprobe relay-based switches are designed for fail-soft operation, so they always maintain connectivity. With the RSS, you can rely on communications even when power is removed or control connections are down.
Failover to redundant lines or equipment can be performed manually, automatically or remotely via a web browser, so you can ensure maximum uptime of your critical communication circuits.

Switching Options for Every User
With the RSS, you can create fault-tolerant systems with simultaneous (gang) switching or independent control of each A/B switch. A/B switch cards are available in standard communication interfaces, and support all the leads in their respective interfaces, making them ideal for a wide variety of circuit arrangements.
Scalable 1U and 4U rackmount systems provide an unlimited number of switching possibilities.
Control Options
We offer a variety of control options to facilitate design of reliable redundancy solutions. Each control card can be installed in either the RSS-16 or RSS-3 to provide either individual or gang control.
- IPC-16 Individual Control Card with IP and Serial Interfaces
- IPC-1 Gang Control Card with IP Interface
- IOC-16 Individual Control Card with GPIO (Contact Closure) Interface
- IOC-3 Gang and 3x Individual Control Card with GPIO Interface
IPC-16 Network and Serial Control Card
- Individual Control
- Web, Telnet, SNMP, Serial, UDP Messaging
The IPC-16 allows control resolution down to the A/B switch level. Each A/B switch can be individually managed, or gang switched as required.
Both serial and network interfaces provide communication with user-friendly menus or web browser interfaces. Each A/B card in the system can be named for easy identification. Cards can be grouped and switched together or independently. For system developers, the RSS series offers direct command control, both via the serial port and via UDP network messaging. This allows direct program control by Network Management Systems, customized user interfaces, or easily integrated into OEM systems and software.
RSS-16 Chassis offers Dual Redundant IPC-16 controllers for the most reliable configuration.

IPC-16 Simple Web Interface
IPC-1 Gang Network Control Card
- Gang Control
- Web, SNMP, TCP Messaging, AutoPing
For gang applications in either the RSS-3 or RSS-16 chassis, the IPC-1 provides web control, setup and management. Point your browser to the IP address assigned to the switch, enter a security code and click on the button to operate the switch.
Fallback switching for your critical communication circuits is just a click away with these web enabled A/B Switches. Switch one Common circuit to either circuits A or B from anywhere in the world. Just point your browser to the IP address
of the switch, enter a username and password and click on either A or B button to reroute traffic. These switches can also be operated automatically, by pinging a device and switching automatically when the ping fails, or from an SNMP Manager Direct TCP messages.

IPC-1 Web Interface for Gang Switching
IOC-16 I/O Control Card
- Individual Control
- External Contact Closure, Relay Status Feedback
Use external relay closures or discrete inputs to integrate A/B Fallback switching into your network environment. Each switch is independently controlled with its own set of control inputs. For status information, a relay output is provided for positive switch confirmation. All 16 inputs are terminated on one 50 Pin Telco connector, and another 50 Pin telco provides access to the status relays.

IOC-3 I/O Control Card • Gang Control• External Contact Closure Use external relay closures or discrete inputs to integrate A/B Fallback switching into your network environment. This card is ideal for gang-controlled switching, or independent control of up to three A/B switch cards. Terminal blocks are used to connect the control and feedback circuits. Two additional modular jacks are used to link multiple chasses together for unlimited gang size and simultaneous switching of multiple circuits.
