1-2 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Multiple Redundancy Levels You can configure the ATM Backbone SwitchModule for two levels of redundancy: n PHY Redundancy — A secondary ATM OC-3 card provides PHY redundancy. If the primary ATM OC-3 card or attached cable fails or performance fails or is no longer receiving light, the redundant ATM OC-3 card becomes active to maintain operations, if PHY switchover is enabled. n Module Redundancy — Adding a second ATM Backbone SwitchModule to the CoreBuilder 5000
