The Flexibilis Redundant Card (FRC) is a PCIe network interface card designed for seamless integration of High-availability Seamless Redundancy (HSR) and Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) standards. This card offers an open, interoperable solution, supporting critical traffic communication and clock synchronization through IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP). As part of Flexibilis' innovative redundancy solutions, FRC integrates advanced features of the Flexibilis Redundant Switch (FRS) in a ready-to-use PCIe form factor.
FRC ensures zero-loss Ethernet communication by implementing redundancy at the Ethernet layer, securing high network reliability and availability. Its highly accurate clock synchronization, essential for substation automation and power grid installations, achieves sub-microsecond accuracy over multiple network hops.
With its user-friendly design, FRC enables rapid deployment of redundant communication within existing infrastructures, utilizing a graphical user interface or the NETCONF management protocol for configuration. This card includes four RJ45 Ethernet ports and supports full-duplex gigabit non-blocking switching, making it a high-performance solution for seamless network operations.
