REDUNDANT NETWORK SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18744782 titled 'REDUNDANT NETWORK SYSTEM

The abstract describes a redundant network system that includes a compute node with a network interface card, a primary switch, a secondary switch, and a cable assembly with a signal splitting circuit.

  • The compute node has a network interface card with a node port.
  • The primary switch has a primary switch component and a primary switch port.
  • The secondary switch has a secondary switch component and a secondary switch port.
  • The cable assembly connects the node port to the primary and secondary switch ports.
  • The cable assembly includes a signal splitting circuit and first and second cables.

Potential Applications: - Data centers - High availability networks - Critical infrastructure systems

Problems Solved: - Network downtime - Data loss - System failures

Benefits: - Increased reliability - Improved network performance - Enhanced data protection

Commercial Applications: Title: "Redundant Network Systems for Enhanced Reliability in Data Centers" This technology can be used in data centers, telecommunications networks, and other critical infrastructure systems to ensure uninterrupted network connectivity and data transfer.

Questions about Redundant Network Systems: 1. How does the signal splitting circuit in the cable assembly improve network reliability? 2. What are the key differences between primary and secondary switches in this redundant network system?


Original Abstract Submitted

A redundant network system includes a compute node having a network interface card includes a node port. The redundant network system includes a primary switch having a primary switch component and a primary switch port coupled to the primary switch component. The redundant network system includes a secondary switch having a secondary switch component and a secondary switch port coupled to the secondary switch component. The redundant network system includes a cable assembly having a node connector coupled to the node port, a primary connector coupled to the primary switch port, and a secondary connector coupled to the secondary switch port. The cable assembly includes a signal splitting circuit between the node connector and the primary and secondary connectors. The cable assembly includes a first cable between the signal splitting circuit and the primary connector and a second cable between the signal splitting circuit and the secondary connector.
