Nova73 HD – Just what a router must be.
Perfect Redundancy.
For highest system availability.
I/O System
All modules in the I/O frame are linked to the mastercard
by point-to-point connections. With an additional second
mastercard, your system has a second, parallel, point-topoint
connection, thus offering perfect security. Furthermore,
point-to-point connections are inherently friendly
to hot swapping (card insertion and/or removal on an active
system).
System core
The HD core also uses point-to-point connections; unlike
bus-based systems, faults can be reliably pinned down
to their respective end points. The advantage of this is
that, in the case of a fault, the entire system does not
hang up, and components can even be changed during
runtime.
Cabling
A further level of redundancy is provided by doublingup
the fibre links. In this configuration, the fibres are
connected to double ports at both ends of the link so
that, should a connection fail, there is always a backup
connection.
Routing systems
For complete redundancy, a dual-core system can be
deployed, whereby the second core can be set-up at a
different location. A particular highlight of Lawo routing
systems is the Dual Self-Healing Star architecture of
the Nova73 DSHS. This architecture permits faults to
be remedied independently by the system, without user
intervention; a benefit that above all guarantees the highest
efficiency in day-to-day operation.
